Private nursery considering DS as vulnerable...

Hi there,

My private nursery is considering classifying my 14 month old as vulnerable so that I have the option of continuing to use them amongst this madness. I work from home - full time employed, work is happy for me to have him here - but in reality doing so for more than 1 week would be very difficult. DP has already been cleared to 2 days a week working from home during the evenings to provide daytime childcare.

LO has lifetime problems with severe allergies, reflux, feeding aversion. He only eats food at nursery: At home, he survives on large amounts of prescription formula and grated cheese... He is capable of eating but won't (currently under a few different teams for assessment and goals).

Would you send this child in? DP wants to, I don't. We are a small healthy family unit not seeing other people, but I do have asthma. We won't have to pay for nursery (they have confirmed) if we don't send him during this outbreak. I'm afraid he'll go in and catch it and be one of the very unlucky ones and I'd never forgive myself...

If you won't be liable to pay if he doesn't, then no.
