I am so gutted basically, dd has been nursery twice, first day got an email saying there was one case but she wasn’t in contact. She’s had her second day (she goes Mondays) told there’s a case but people would be directly contacted and not to worry so same wording as first email.it does not affect their place and only if you’ve been contacted to worry ect. She goes her dads Wednesday and mixes with two critically vulnerable people (as he lives at home) her grandad is due to have heart surgery.

They tell me today she was in contact with the child/ adult on Monday who has it. I’m really upset, so worried about her fathers family. I was fine with the nursery and didn’t react on the ohonr but just so I can rant on here. Why didn’t they tell me sooner?! Sad

I will feel terrible if her grandad tests positive now and can’t have his Surgery. I just feel so miserable. She’d only just started and I wish I hadn’t sent her now.

She gets funding in jan and I’ve cancelled her place. I just wanted her to mix with children and learn and grow as al her groups haven’t been on. Now I feel so bad Sad

Wish they’d just told me sooner so I wouldn’t of sent her there Sad

OP you were doing the best for your daughter by sending her to nursery where she can grow and develop. She is us your baby and has her whole life ahead of her. She comes first.

If her grandad lives with her father there's nothing you could have done, other than stop her seeing her dad for the weeks and months before you all get vaccinated.

You were being a good mum Flowers

It's a shame you now have two weeks of worry but I don't think you've really done anything wrong. With hindsight it probably wasn't the best idea for your DD to stay overnight with someone who's going in for an operation, but really that was more her dad's decision than yours. Even so it's still unlikely that she'll have caught anything, been contagious and passed it on.

It sounds like overall nursery is still a good idea for your DD, depending on how visits to her dad can be managed.

I hope everything turns out OK and you don't worry too much Flowers

(((hug)))

You did what you thought was the best thing at the time. Hindsight doesn't change that

Hopefully she didn't get it & hopefully even if she has , she wasn't able to pass it on when she saw her Grandad. Her Dad/Grandad were really stupid not to say they wouldn't see her until at least after his surgery. You haven't gone behind their backs & taken her, so 'it is what it is' and all you can do now us hope for the best.

You should see about getting a refund as you can't take her anymore with her Grandad being vulnerable.

Hope DD is ok! X
