I am very angry right now. Majority of my families have been with me at least 2 years but no matter what any time their child is sent home sick they always ask can they come back tomorrow.................
they know my rules and my state rules. WHY on earth do they ask, they know I am going to say no, fever/runs/vomit free for a full 24 hours without the aids of medication.............
We have had some illness flying around and kids have been dropping like flies. fever, vomit, ear infection, etc......
Other than repeating yourself over and over saying no its a full 24 hours what other come back can I use....................because what i want to say and what I should say are two totally different things.....lol

Reminder notice?
"It is in the best interest of all involved in our daycare setting if ill children remain home. The following is a reminder of the illness policy to keep on hand. Please note that no exceptions will be permitted."
If someone challenges it, maybe ask if they are no longer in agreement with the policy they signed?

If it kept happening over and over, I'd have to be honest. I'd say "I'm curious why you ask about when you can bring them back. I've had the same policy forever. Just wondering, why do you ask?"I am very angry right now.

I use this form. It clearly TELLS the parent the earliest a child may return to care. They must sign and date the form. I usually make two copies. One for the child's file and one for the parent to take home for reference, in case they forget what symptoms are excludable.

Yes I would be very Blunt about It. You have to also worry about the other kids.. and thats selfish she even Consider the fact of sending them back instead of watching over her child for 24hrs and making sure everything is ok .. I've had kids have seizers that never had them before ... because their temp was 103 but parents tend to over look and think things are A ok ... WELL IT"S NOT!... But some time you have to just know just because people have children doesn't mean they know what they are doing ... Anywho be BLUNT! Mean what you Say and SAY what you mean .. HUMPH..

Even though half of my dcps don't read what I send home, I like the form, it gives them a checklist & leaves no doubts as to whether or not Jr can return.
