Can nursery administer thrush cream on nappy area?

[rosieandjoel]

Baby is fine, but has thrush on bum and nappy area.
Since thrush doesn't spread, I am wondering if the nursery can administer the cream and I won't have to keep DD off with me? She's in great spirits and I really need to work.

You will have to ask what their policy is. Some will, some won’t.

Has it been prescribed? Normally they are able to administer prescribed medications.

Not yet, just waiting for the doctors to fit me in. I'm very sure it's thrush looking at photos (I know you can't always tell), I'm just thinking if it is, I could do with the nursery helping out with it 🤞

nursery never had a problem with us when we had to use canasten for nappy rash. We were fairly prone to getting thrush, all I had to do was fill out a medication form. But it usually was a twice a day application so nursery didn't actually need to apply it that often.
