Hiya.
New to this forum :)
Just after a bit of advice. Sorry if it seems like a silly question.
I've not long started childminding. Been doing it for about 2 months, watching a 1 year old and have 2 preschoolers of my own. My 2 kids now have chickenpox and my mindee was in contact with them the day before the spots appeared which means she'll probably get them too.
question is. Should I have an exclusion policy stopping her from coming to my setting until both my kids are no longer infectious? Although by then she will probably have them. If so, do I then have the exclusion policy in place again ? Even though my kids have already had it and are the ones that passed it on in the first place? I'm so confused! Again, sorry if it's a really obvious answer. I'm a total newbie to all of this.
Thanks in advance x
