Child Care Health Program Newsletter
The Child Care Health Program regularly sends out a newsletter on health and safety information relevant to child care and early learning programs. It includes reminders and updates on communicable diseases and prevention strategies, nutrition and food safety updates, training opportunities, vaccine requirements for children and staff, care plan documents and authorizations, and much more. While most of our content is for child care and early learning providers, we occasionally have announcements you may want to share with families in your programs.
If materials are changed or adapted, please keep the Public Health logo and add the phrase "Adapted from materials developed from Public Health — Seattle & King County."
