Answers:
Most kids in daycare tend to have more frequent viral infections - at least for the first few years!. It is just a matter of being more exposed to different viruses - which makes sense since many different children come together!.
It won't hurt her and might also help her immune system!. In general younger children get anywhere from 10-20 colds in a year!.
I wouldn't feel guilty about going to work; in the next year or so, she will start having less infections!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

Wow!. I feel so sorry for you Nicole because I was going through this earlier this year!. I was feeling like quitting my job because the day care was calling me everyday because they claimed my son was throwing up and had diarrhea!. It is true that the child will have the same problem at almost any day care that he goes to!. Although, I think at the last one that called me all of the time was just nasty and lazy and didn't want to keep my child!. They were probably not washing their hands and letting the sick kids stay at the daycare only to worry the hell out of me about my child being sick and having to go home!.
Anyway, my solution was to find a home daycare!. He has been their since April and he's had a pink eye once and that's it!. No diarrhea or fever since he left that last day care!. Just call/look around and find a good home daycare!. That's the best solution!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

Could it be the Day Care that you are taking her to!? Maybe its something at the Day care that's making her ill besides the other kids!. Instead of quitting, why not try another Day Care since you like your job!? Www@Answer-Health@Com
