Medication
At Kristen’s Kidz Daycare I do not give medications to the children.
If your child needs to be medicated in order to get through the day, and be able to comfortably participate in our daily schedule, then it is quite possible he or she may be too sick to attend daycare. I will however give certain doctor prescribed medications to the children, of course given that they are no longer contagious, and only if the medication consent form has been signed. Examples of these would be; antibiotics for ear infections etc and Tylenol for teething or pain associated with bumps or bruises (not to bring down a fever). If you're not sure if I will administer a certain medication or not, please feel free to ask.
