Tree Nut Allergy

[Discoveries]

I tried to become nut free for a short term child with an allergy before, but found it stressful. Not from my end as I was very cautious about what I brought into the house, as I knew this child's health was my responsibility. However other clients never seems to take it seriously, or just forgot. Children came in munching on cereals that were not nut free, despite no food from home aloud. One came in smeared in peanut butter after eating PB on toast in the car on the way over. It was often on her coat & mitts.

I have also removed the almond butter, almonds, walnuts and pesto (has pine nuts).

This little girl's allergy is specific to the nuts and not fruit. Also, she has been on planes where peanut products were served. The parents said she is only sensitive when consuming them.
