This. Please don't be that parent, OP. Our daycare says no coming back until 48 hours without symptoms and we take that seriously.

Every cold or virus in the times of COVID is a minimum of one week out. Sucks because she still gets a nasty bug every 2 to 3 weeks like clockwork.


Poor kids. What a sucky miserable sick life!


PP here, yes I actually question my decision a lot lately but don't want to start a different arrangement in a pandemic and we love her school.

Thanks for being so supportive and compassionate! I bet your kid is having a great time in whatever bubble you are keeping them

Have fun when your kid starts school! You can't insulate your kid forever

This makes no sense- your kid could get COVID from daycare, right?

I keep her home the first day to make sure it's not going to turn into something worse. If it continues to be just congestion or clear runny nose, I send her. She has allergies and these aren't exclusion symptoms at our center.

No. We keep him home.

And please don’t send your child to daycare with a beginning cold, parents. Please think about the other kids and their families.

Our daycare is being really strict so I probably wouldn't send because they would just call me to pick DC up in an hour.

I sent DD when she had a stuffy nose but clear mucus. We used Nose Frida and she was okay. Daycare only excludes for green snot. When she’s fussy though it’s usually a sign she’s about to come down with something so I wouldn’t send her on such days.

If he’s unusually fussy? No.

Just curious, we did not this time, but wondering what other people do. FWIW congestion is not considered a Covid symptom and daycare does not require exclusion for that.
