⚠️ Choking is silent and happens very quickly — which is why knowing what to do (and how to prevent it) is so important. 👶🩹

Children under 5 are at higher risk, so awareness and supervision really matter.

🚫 Common choking hazards include everyday foods and small objects.

👉 Swipe to see some of the top choking hazards for young children.

🧠 Please remember:

✔️ STAY with young children while they’re eating
✔️ Make sure children are STILL while eating

🏃‍♂️ A child running around with food in their mouth is much more likely to choke.

💙 Blue Monday 💙

You might have heard of Blue Monday, often labelled as the “most depressing day of the year” - and it’s today.

But the lovely folks at Samaritans have rebranded it as Brew Monday ☕💛 - and we are very here for that.

The idea is simple and powerful:

Mental health struggles don’t fit neatly into one day on the calendar. They can show up any day, any week, any month. That’s why checking in on the people we care about should be a regular thing.

Brew Monday is all about connection 🤍

☕ Putting the kettle on
📱 Sending a quick message
🗨️ Having a proper chat
👂🏻 Or just sitting together and listening

No fixing. No pressure. Just being there.

Today is a gentle reminder to reach out to a friend and ask how they’re really doing.

A small check-in can make a big difference 💛

If you’re struggling, please remember - you don’t have to cope alone.

Support is always available:
📞 Samaritans – 116 123 (24/7)
📞 Mind – 0300 102 1234
📞 PANDAS Foundation – 0808 1961 776

🤒 Tonsillitis is an infection of the tonsils at the back of the throat.
It’s very common in children, but teenagers and adults can get it too.
It can feel a lot like a bad cold or flu, with red, swollen tonsils at the back of the throat.

Common symptoms include:

🔴 Sore throat
🥤 Problems swallowing
🌡️ High temperature (38°C or above)
🤧 Cough
🤕 Headache
🤢 Feeling sick
👂 Earache
😴 Feeling tired

Symptoms usually improve after 3–4 days. Tonsillitis itself isn’t contagious, but the infections that cause it (like colds and flu) often are.

🏠 Keep your child at home until they feel better.

To help ease symptoms:

✔️ Encourage plenty of rest
✔️ Offer cool drinks or ice lollies to soothe the throat
✔️ Give paracetamol or ibuprofen (following the guidance on the packaging)

☎️ See a GP or call 111 if:

⚠️ You notice white, pus-filled spots on the tonsils
⚠️ Eating or drinking is affected
⚠️ Symptoms haven’t improved after 4 days

💙 Impetigo is a very contagious skin infection, but it’s not usually serious.
With treatment, it often clears up within 7–10 days. Anyone can get it, but it’s most common in young children.

💛 It usually starts as red sores or blisters that burst and leave crusty, golden-brown patches.

These patches can:

⚠️ Look like cornflakes stuck to the skin
⚠️ Get bigger
⚠️ Spread to other areas
⚠️ Be itchy
⚠️ Sometimes be painful
Impetigo can spread easily to others until it’s no longer contagious.

🕒 It stops being contagious:

• 48 hours after starting treatment prescribed by a GP
• Or when patches dry out and crust over (if untreated)

✅ To help stop it spreading:

✔️ Keep your child off school/nursery
✔️ Keep sores clean and dry
✔️ Cover with loose clothing or gauze
✔️ Wash hands frequently
✔️ Wash towels, bedding & flannels on a hot wash
✔️ Clean toys with warm water and detergent

❌ Avoid:

❌ Touching or scratching sores (helps prevent scarring)
❌ Close contact with people with weakened immune systems
❌ Sharing towels, bedding or flannels
❌ Contact sports like football

💙 Whooping cough (pertussis) is something many parents are hearing about right now — and for good reason.

💛 It’s a highly contagious infection that can be particularly serious for young babies who haven’t had their own vaccinations yet.

💙 One of the best ways to protect your newborn is to have the whooping cough vaccine during pregnancy.

💛 In the UK, it’s usually offered from around 16 weeks, ideally before 32 weeks, so protective antibodies can pass to your baby before birth.

💙 Even if you’ve missed the earlier window, it’s still worth speaking to your midwife or GP about having the vaccine later in pregnancy or soon after birth.

💛 Babies then begin their own routine immunisations from around 8 weeks old, including protection against whooping cough, as part of the childhood vaccination schedule.
