Some of you may remember a thread a couple of months ago about a mindee who had a sickness bug but his mum only bothers to tell me about after the event.
The first time he had one she phoned me half way though the day to see how he was as she said he had been sick in the night. He was fine that day but obviously still contagious. I then caught this bug.
The second time she didn't bother to tell me about it until she picked him up that night. Again he had been sick the night before. That time i gave her another copy of my sickness policy underlining the do not bring him for at least 24 hours bit.
Yesterday his dad dropped him off and said nothing about him being ill but when he left and i opened up the contact book, his mum had written that he seemed to have an upset tummy so had put him in Nappy's instead of pants(we are in the middle of potty training). He was fine all day so i didn't send him home but i did reply in contact book that she must keep him home if he has a bug.
Now, today he has been fine all morning then at 12pm he had diarrhoea. He then started his lunch and half way through started crying saying he has pain in his tummy and wanted to be sick. I have tried phoning both mum and Dad 3 times but both seem to be ignoring my calls.
I know it's hard for them to keep coming out of work but at the end of the day it's their child. Just recently he has had 3 rotten colds and bronchilitis so he has been more poorly than normal but all he wants is to be with his parents.
Anyway she has just returned my call - only took 1 1/2 hours. She is picking him up at 2.30 so at least i haven't got to drag the poor child on the school run.
Luckily he is my only mindee today but hopefully me or my DS won't get it.
