EpiSode 50: How to safely send your food allergy child to daycare
Description
Sending your food-allergic child to daycare for the first time can feel terrifying—but it doesn’t have to be. In this episode of EpiPod, Sarah opens up about how she navigated that exact moment as an allergy mom, sharing the practical steps she took to prepare, communicate with caregivers, and advocate confidently for her child’s safety.
From crafting action plans and choosing the right daycare, to unexpected challenges and the tricks that worked, Sarah offers a real-world roadmap for families in the same boat. Danielle jumps in with the big questions every new allergy parent wants to ask—like “What if they don’t get it?” and “How do you trust someone else to keep your kid safe?”
Whether you're weeks away from drop-off or just thinking ahead, this episode is full of reassuring advice, emotional honesty, and hard-earned wisdom.
