Informatiom for parents/carers to help stop the spread of childhood infections
Many children first enter early childhood education and care services at a time when their
immunesystems are still developing. They may not have been exposed to the common germs that cause infections before and they may be too young to be vaccinated against some diseases. The way that children interact means that diseases can quickly spread in a variety of ways. Children (particularly younger children) will have close physical contact with other children through play; they often put objects in their mouths; and they may not always cover their coughs and sneezes. Simple steps can reduce the chance that childhood infections spread to other people in the familyand in childhood education and care services, and to vulnerable people in the community.
Please refer to the attached Communicable Diseases Factsheet - Stopping the spread of childhood infections and help stop the spread of childhood infections for advise from NSW Health if your child becomes unwell with an infection.
