[quote=Anonymous]Different kids have different immune systems, yours might be a bit more susceptible. Especially with it being cold and flue season as well. If your nanny goes out every day, you could ask her to cut back a little bit. Handwashing is a great idea, but if they spend their whole childhood getting wiped with antibacterial wipes their bodies will never learn to deal with germs, which will be so much worse in the long run. So moderation is key, I think: wash hands after being outside, before meals, after playing with messy things. But, like, wiping everything off with hand sanitiser before the babies touch it is a bit overkill. It might not bring anything, but you could certainly ask your nanny to go out three times rather than five every week, even if just for your peace of mind.[/quote]
