Child self isolation advise

[Pinkflower23]

Hey all,

Sticky situation, I just don’t know what to do!

I’m booked in to have a cosmetic procedure done next week. The plan was myself, partner and child to stop in a hotel the night before and after then coming home.
My daughter now has to self isolate due to being a contact. I havnt told any family or friends that I’m having the procedure done as I wanted to keep it private. When we are due to go down the night before my daughter would technically be on day 7/10 of self isolation.
I just don’t know what to do!

Is my child allowed to changed houses during isolation? Like could I send her to her grandparents ? I really didn’t want to tell anyone but I think I may have to. They are already in the childcare bubble ?

Any thoughts? Thankyou in advance x

no you can't.

My dd tested positive on day 6 of self isolation.

No she can't. Can she stay home with your dp and you go alone?

No, she needs to stay at home with a member of her household. If you won't be up to travelling/driving immediately after, I'd suggest getting a taxi to a nearby hotel and then your DP picking you up 2/3 days later.

No, your child can’t leave the house. Definitely can’t go to a different household or a hotel. Either go by yourself or postpone the procedure.

The place your having the procedure may also ask if anyone in your household is isolating and therefore might postpone it for you anyway. They won’t thank you for going.

Like could I send her to her grandparents ?

Seriously? A child isolating due to exposure to a confirmed case of COVID-19? Send them to their grandparents????

Do they even go on ahead with your procedure knowing you have been SI-ing with a child for positive covid, and and not over the SI period yet?

Can you not go by yourself? Wouldn’t that be preferable for you any way - a bit of peace and quiet?

That’s if you’re allowed to go anyway.

Ring the hospital before you talk to anyone else. They may postpone the procedure.

But, no. Your daughter needs to stay at home, with one of you. You will need to go to the hospital alone, or with a friend or family member.

She should stay at home with your partner. Get someone else to go with you.

No you can’t she needs to stay at hone. And I think you need to check whether they will even allow the procedure to go ahead with you living with someone self isolating.

You need to ring hospital, they may not want you to go in if you are living with someone who is isolating.

Not sure you can stay in a hotel for those reasons anyway unless you’re not in the uk.
