🐔 Chickenpox: What Parents Should Know

Chickenpox is caused by the varicella-zoster virus and spreads quickly, often before the rash even appears. It’s most common in children under 10, especially in spring and winter.

After exposure, symptoms can take up to 21 days to show. Spots can be few or can cover the whole body — including the scalp, face, mouth, and ge****ls.

Chickenpox happens in three stages:
1️⃣ Small spots
2️⃣ Blisters
3️⃣ Scabs

It’s infectious from 1–2 days before the rash until all spots have crusted (usually 5–6 days).
Although usually a mild illness, little ones can feel very uncomfortable.

💚 Treatment & Care:
🪭 Keep your child cool — heat can make itching worse
💊 Give paracetamol for fever (avoid ibuprofen unless advised by a doctor)
🧴 Use soothing lotions or gels for itchy skin
💧 Offer plenty of fluids
💅🏻 Trim nails or use mittens to prevent scratching
👩🏻‍⚕️ If you are in any way concerned about your baby or child’s condition; call 111 for advice or call 999 for an emergency.

Children should stay off nursery/school/child care until the spots have crusted over. It is worth checking your child carer’s policy.

You never expect your world to change in a single moment, but Bernie’s did when she woke to find her baby gasping for air.

Reacting quickly, Bernie recognised that her son had experienced a cardiac arrest and began CPR.

Calm, clean, and cover 🩹

If blood can get out, infection can get in — so let’s keep those little cuts protected 🦠

Scrapes and grazes are all part of life with kids. Accidents happen, especially as the weather cools and the ground gets icy! 🥶

Here’s what to do:
🚰 Wash your hands thoroughly and dry them. Pop on disposable gloves if you have them.
🧼 Rinse the wound with bottled or tap water, or use sterile wipes.
🧽 Clean the skin around the wound with soap and water or antiseptic — just avoid getting antiseptic inside the wound.
🧺 Gently pat dry with a gauze swab or a clean tea towel.
🩹 Apply a sterile dressing or plaster to protect the area.

Don’t forget: check the expiry dates on your dressings and plasters — yes, they do go out of date!
