What happens if my child is sick ?

In the event of illness, the child is generally not welcomed in a collective environment for several reasons:

• A sick child must be able to benefit from supervision adapted to his condition, namely calm and special attention.
• A sick child is temporarily unable to participate in or enjoy the activities offered.
• The decision whether or not to take in a sick child should not interfere with the quality of care offered to other children.
• As an employer, we also have a duty to look after the health of our professionals and to offer them a healthy workplace, just as we look after the general health of all the children cared for.

The Director of the daycare center and the educational team are empowered to judge the state of health of a child and his compatibility with the life of the daycare center. As such, it is up to him to accept or refuse the daycare of the child within the center.

For greater clarity, a list of illnesses admitted in group daycare has been drawn up and appears in the Appendix to this document, based on the recommendations of the cantonal doctor.
