If you child is unwell and unable to come to nursery we ask that you contact us as soon as possible. Please let us know if this is as a result of an infectious disease so that we can take any appropriate action required to reduce the risk of infection.
In line with Lothian NHS Guidance, when your child suffers from sickness or diarrhoea, they will need to stay at home for 48 hours after the symptoms have stopped.
If your child presents as unwell please keep them at home until they are without fever/ temperature for 24 hours without infant paracetamol or ibuprofen.
If your young person becomes unwell when in our care we will contact you and ask that they are collected. It is essential that you let us know if your emergency contact details change.
We follow NHS and Health Protection guidance around recommended periods of absence. If you are unsure whether your young person is able to attend nursery please contact the office and our staff will try to guide you using this guidance.
