Food Policy
Hey Babywearers! For the safety of littles, please help us to ensure that meetings are nut free. We will also begin offering wipes at meeting check in to wipe down hands and faces of all who have eaten recently. Additionally, caregivers can request that a meeting be food free up to 48 hours prior to the meeting.
We will announce on the event pages if a meeting is going to be food free and will post reminders at the door. At food free meetings, feel free to step out and give your child a snack and then return after washing hands. At food free meetings, water in closed containers and formula or breastmilk in bottles is always acceptable, but please be mindful of keeping bottles up high or away in a diaper bag when not in use.
As a reminder to all parents, we meet in public spaces and our meeting rooms may have had food from prior events even during food free meetings. Additionally due to our check out and check in procedures, we cannot wash all carriers between checkouts. If you or your child has severe contact allergies, please alert an educator and we can give you washing instructions for you to use at home prior to using the carrier. When carriers are cleaned, we use Seventh Generation Free and Clear. Hand washing carriers in blue Dawn is almost always a good alternative as well.
If you need to make arrangements to return a carrier to a meeting and have to miss due to illness, please contact librarian@bwiofcleveland.o

Sick Policy
For the safety and consideration of others and their children, PLEASE follow these guidelines. If we see a child/caregiver at a meeting who is visibly sick, they may be asked by a leader to leave (lovingly, but firmly):
- Please do not come to a meeting if you or your child have experienced a fever, diarrhea or vomiting within the last 48 hours.
- Please do not come to a meeting if you or your child are coughing or sneezing frequently (unless you are sure it's allergies/asthma, not a respiratory infection/cold). If you have allergies, please notify the lead VBE when you arrive so we are aware.
- Runny noses are ok as long as there is no sign of infection.
If you need to make arrangements to return a carrier to a meeting and have to miss due to illness, please contact librarian@bwiofcleveland.o
