🌍 Global Handwashing Day – 15 October 🌍
Today we celebrate the power of clean hands! Handwashing with soap is a simple act that protects us all from germs, infections, and even serious diseases.

🧼 Why it matters:
It can reduce diarrhoeal diseases by up to 40%.
It helps prevent respiratory infections.
It’s one of the most cost-effective public health interventions in the world.

🖐️ How to do it right:
1️⃣ Wet your hands with clean, running water.
2️⃣ Apply soap and lather well.
3️⃣ Scrub for at least 20 seconds — don’t forget thumbs and nails!
4️⃣ Rinse and dry with a clean towel.

Healthy hands build a healthy community. Let’s spread awareness — not germs! 💧💙

🧡 July is Cleft & Craniofacial Awareness Month 🧡

Every year, thousands of babies are born with cleft lips, cleft palates, and other craniofacial conditions. These conditions affect not just appearance, but speech, feeding, hearing, and overall health.

This month, we shine a light on the strength of these individuals, the dedication of their families, and the incredible work of the healthcare teams that support them — from surgeons to speech therapists, audiologists, and more.

Together, we can raise awareness, promote early diagnosis, support access to care, and reduce stigma. 💪✨

Let’s celebrate every smile — and help build a world where every child gets the support they deserve. 💙💛

✋🏻🦶🏻👄 Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease (HFM) – “Hands” down one of the most irritating infections your child can catch (pun intended)! 😅

Feared by daycare staff and dreaded by parents, this mild but highly contagious viral infection can spread fast among little ones—especially in summer and autumn. It’s caused by the Coxsackie virus and usually affects kids under 5, though adults can get it too.

👀 What to Look For:
Painful red blisters in the mouth (tongue, gums, cheeks)
Red rash or sores on hands, feet, and sometimes diaper area
Fever, sore throat, fatigue, headache
Loss of appetite

🤒 It spreads through:
Coughs, sneezes, and saliva
Blister fluid or contact with p**p (yep, that too)
Shared toys or surfaces 😬

🛑 Is it treatable?
There’s no cure, but it usually clears in 7–10 days. Home remedies can help:
✅ Paracetamol/Ibuprofen (no aspirin!)
✅ Cold drinks, frozen lollies, numbing sprays
✅ Saltwater gargles for sore throats
✅ Keep blisters clean and dry—don’t pop them!

📞 Call the doctor if:
Your child isn’t drinking or peeing enough
Fever lasts more than 3 days
Sores look infected

🧼 Prevention Tips:
Wash hands often
Disinfect toys, surfaces, and pacifiers
Don’t share cups/utensils
Keep sick kiddos home until blisters heal and fever is gone

Let’s stop the spread and keep our little ones happy and healthy! 💪
