How to help your caregiver with this topic

• Be sure your caregiver has a record of your child’s immunizations.



Hint: Ask for a duplicate record before you leave the doctor’s office.


• Share a list of times the local stores provide flu shots.


• Invite other parents to 'sponsor' a caregiver’s shots and cover the cost.


• Contact the public health department and see if they have a program that would come out to the child care program to give flu shots.


• Ask your employer if they would allow your caregiver to get her/his flu shot at your office.


• At parent meetings, share the resources listed here with those parents who have concerns about the safety or value of vaccines.
