Sick Child Policy

Preventing and Managing Illness

At Journey, we do all we can to prevent illness and germs from spreading. We utilize air filtration, a center wide cleaning service and a complete toy sanitation daily to minimize bacteria and viruses.

​

If your child displays any symptoms of illness, it is best to keep them home during the most contagious times (the first 24-48 hours).

 

​​

  • Temperature of 100 degrees of more

  • Sore throat

  • Nausea or vomiting

  • Ear infection with discomfort

  • Rash or any possible contagious skin condition

  • Diarrhea

  • Conjunctivitis (pink-eye)

  • Head Lice - Must be nit-free

  • Bad cough or colored drainage from their eyes/nose.

Is it a cold or the flu? Please view this Kids Health Article to see the differences and symptoms for the common cold and the flu.
