How do you prevent medical situations like a food allergy trigger in your daycare?

Every daycare center must be responsible, careful, and diligent when it comes to protecting children with allergies and other acute medical needs. If you have training in health and safety or even nutrition for kids with allergies, be sure to mention this to the hiring authority. Discuss the steps you would take to ensure that all kids remain safe in your daycare center.

"In my current daycare, we provide all the food to the children, so that we can ensure no allergy-triggering foods such as soy, peanuts, or dairy come into the center. The parents pre-approve a set menu every three months, so they have assurance their child is receiving the best nutrition possible. I believe the more you can control within the center, the safer the place can be for everyone."
