I look after my own dd and one other girl around the same age, and she comes 5 days a week. Chicken pox are spreading quickly here, and mindee's dad and I were talking about it this morning. He made a comment about how it's best to get it out of the way when they're young, and also how it would be good if the girls could get it at the same time. Basically, he seems to think that I could still look after his little one if both girls get chicken pox. Can I? I know some children don't get very poorly with it, but I was under the impression that I can't look after any little ones with chicken pox, nor can I allow them to come to my house if my dd has chicken pox.
Mindee's family are really lovely, but do get funny about illness (try to send lo even when ill, get annoyed if my lo is ill, etc). My understanding is that I can't look after their little one if my dd has it, even if they want their lo to get it. Also, I can't look after their lo if both kids get it at the same time. Is that right? I could honestly see them trying to send mindee if she had it and my dd didn't!
