    Fever

    At what temperature do you restrict a child from entering your daycare day or staying at daycare for day?

    I do an armpit reading and if it is about 37.3 C I send them home.

    I like using this website as a guide for fevers:

    I use the armpit thermometer too. Don't forget to add a degree! I send home if the temp is 38.3C (so the therm will read 37.3).

    If the child is nearing that temp, I will send them a text as a heads up that they may need to pick up early.

A few tips...

Always ensure that your child receives quality care by taking the time to investigate the provider and by asking for references! We simply cannot verify the claims of every daycare provider.
