Babes & Halfpints Childcare/Preschool

The way Lorette has gone about her protocols with Covid exposures is unethical. Being a childcare provider, it is their responsibility to put our children’s safety and well-being as their number one priority. That being said, Lorette should be well aware of all possible symptoms of Covid. Lorette sent a text at 5:44pm on 9/20/21 stating that due to her health (didn’t go into details), she needed to close for the next two days. On 9/23/21, she sent a text at 5:30pm stating she had tested positive for Covid & would be closed the rest of the week. Lorette admittedly stated that she started experiencing symptoms of Covid on September 12th. Being in the middle of a pandemic & knowing she runs a daycare with a huge possibility of potential exposures, she didn’t think to take it upon herself to get tested as soon as she started experiencing symptoms? Let alone communicate with the parents of the symptoms she was experiencing. Upon asking Lorette further questions about the symptoms she was experiencing, Lorette said she finally went to urgent care on on Thursday, September 16th & they diagnosed her with a kidney infection. Yet, knowing she was having symptoms of Covid & is a daycare provider, still didn’t bother to take the extra precaution to get tested for Covid! Lorette was so quick to blame it on the doctors misdiagnosis, yet took zero accountability to take it upon herself to get tested. Regardless if she thought she had it or not, as soon as she started experiencing symptoms, she should have tested. She didn’t think about these kids, their health or their families. Instead, she exposed every single one of these kids & put their health & their families health at risk. So, if you care about your child’s health and well-being, along with your families, I would look for a different daycare that puts your child as a priority over money. Due to Lorette’s negligence, my daughter, my parents & myself have all tested positive for Covid.
