[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I heard from a couple of other parents that they are having the kids change clothes at the door as soon as they get home from daycare.  [b](One said her pediatrician recommended it, so this isn't something she made up.)[/b]  I don't think this is necessary based on everything I've read about how covid is spread.  The articles I read said not to worry about changing clothes and showering when you get home from the grocery store or whatever, so daycare seems similar to me.  I DO think daycare is super germy, but I don't think changing clothes will help that much.  What say you, DCUM?  Should we start doing this?

Also, they are sending nap materials home every day.  I will launder the sheets and blanket.  Should I wash the pillow every day too?  I almost never washed the pillow pre-covid (i washed the pillowcase but not the pillow), but do I need to wash the little pillow now daily too?[/quote]

Is it possible she made this part up because she really thinks herself it helps, thus if your kids do it = hers are healthier, and wanted credibility?[/quote]

This is OP. No, our kids aren’t in the same school. But I do think a lot of pediatricians give advice that they aren’t at all qualified to give, and this seems like one of those instances. It drives me nuts when pediatricians give advice on car seats and sleep training and lots of other stuff that they have no training on and then parents take it as gospel because a doctor told them so.[/quote]
