Abstract
Access to rural childcare can be a significant challenge, and has a significant impact on early childhood development, parent and family employment, and the local economy. Previous studies have demonstrated childcare centers often unnecessarily exclude children from care for mild illnesses, many parents fear losing pay or their job when they stay home with a sick child. In this project, a pamphlet summarizing current guidelines for illness exclusion from childcare was developed for parents and staff at a rural childcare center, in conjunction with an educational session with the childcare director and staff and provision of full current guidelines.
