When children start going to daycare, they are exposed to new microbes, viruses, and emotional stress — all of which increase the risk of colds, coughs, and fevers, especially in autumn.
Main reasons:
New viruses and large groups of kids
Stress weakens immunity
Poor hygiene habits (e.g., putting toys in mouth)
Dry indoor air weakens mucosal protection
How to reduce the risk:
– Ensure 10–12 hours of sleep in a cool, ventilated room
– Provide a nutritious diet with enough protein, fruits, and veggies
– Daily outdoor walks and physical activity
– Gentle hardening (e.g., cool water foot rinses)
– Teach handwashing and keep home air moist
Vaccinations and routine check-ups are also crucial.
Illnesses during adaptation are normal — support your child and stay calm.
