[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We switched our child to an 80% outdoor preschool two years ago (due to covid) and the colds and illness basically stopped. He still gets sick every few months, but it's more like 2-3 times a year. When he was in a indoor daycare/preschool, the illnesses were at least monthly. (I realize we are lucky to live in a community where the weather allows this.) Our pediatrician has told us that if they don't get it in preschool, they'll get it in elementary school and that it's actually worse to get it in elementary since being sick a lot can lead to learning loss (which matters less in preschool years). We'll see what happens in kinder next year.[/quote] This also made a huge difference for us - we switched to eastern ridge in Vienna during covid and illness has been pretty minimal from 2-4, considering. I’m not sure if it’s the age or outdoors or probably a combo. But it certainly reduced. Sorry op I know it’s hard! [/quote]
