RE: The dark side of the daycare

in #health6 years ago (edited)

It is what it is. When we lived in Hervanta, our daughter was cared for in one of the local municipal nurseries for five weeks in the September 2009. She was one year old at the time. She was sick for three out of those five weeks. That place was not so good. There were some problems with the facility such as the temperature being a bit too low inside. Fortunately, my mother was able to care for her for the the following two years. For the following two years after that, she was in another nursery (municipal, too) in Annala without major problems. She was sick every now and then. Then we moved to Nastola and she was in a local municipal nursery and we found that she would be ill much less than before. It's hard to say whether it was because of her being older or because of better hygiene in that facility. The staff did seem to be more stringent about maintaining good hygiene than in the nurseries she was in previously.

Sort:  

They told us that the first year in the daycare would be the hardest because she will get basically every single flu and pox that's available. When she has had them once, it should get a bit easier. So it could be something like that in your daughter's case as well.. but who knows. I'm sure that a good hygiene plays a big part as well.
