Health Information

Daily Health Check

A health check will be completed daily by the classroom teachers.  Questions may be asked of the parent concerning any unusual observations of the child in general. If bruises or injuries are present, it will be documented by the staff.  The child will not be allowed to stay if fever, diarrhea, vomiting, or a possible contagious rash is present. When an antibiotic is prescribed for infection, doctors recommend that the child take the antibiotic for 24 hours before returning to the center. Excellent Beginnings at Wildcat Way will follow that recommendation unless the parent brings a statement from the physician stating that the child may return sooner and is no longer contagious. Allergies should be noted on the medical form by the physician. Teachers will be alert throughout the day for possible signs of illness.
