Precautions looking after a baby when you are sick

Any advice on precautions I can take to
stop passing on my illness to my baby?

I had d&v last night & have avoided baby so far thanks to DH stepping in but will have to look after her tonight. She’s 10 months old. Obviously hand washing and I’m not feeding her (getting DH to prepare foods and bottle feed her - she’s not bf) but is there anything else I can be doing to minimise passing this on?

TIA
