When Your Child is Sick

Children with symptoms such as runny nose, cough and just being fussy can appear to be allergies or teething but they can also be early signs of something contagious. If they have a persistent cough, and if there is green or yellow mucus coming from the nose or eyes it is a sign to stay home until clear for at least 24 hours. The pdf article from Niagara Region Public Health below will help you understand and care for your child when they are sick. Children that do not feel well should stay home for the extra rest they need and for those extra cuddles, love and comfort from their family.
