Conjunctivitis
Hi - i sent a child home today with pink eye. Am I obligated to tell the other parents at pick up time? So they watch for it in their kids? Or is it a privacy thing to disclose something about another child? Tx! Off to disinfect everything...

I tell parent. I find with pink eye, taking the over counter drop preventing potential spread, big help. Nothing to do with privacy, just say "a day care child been confirmed with pink eye" then sign to watch for, exclusion policy and can suggest taking drop in hope of avoiding.

I tell parents whenever anything possibly contagious is going around. It helps if they're aware and can monitor their child for same symptoms. You don't have to name the child, although I'm sure they'll figure it out when little jinny isn't at dc tomorrow

I always tell all parents if something is going around. Sometimes symptoms are caught quicker if they know what to watch for

A big part of small group care is being able to be given that heads up when something is going around. Don't name the child but note what has been observed and what signs to look out for.

I always tell parents if it's something potentially contagious. I don't name the child, just the symptoms to watch for.

Starting to feel at home...
I've heard that doing it while the child sleeps works like a charm. Otherwise, even if you can get a drop in the corner of their eye (if they are refusing to open it), it will go into their eye as soon as they open it.
