Measles is one of the most contagious diseases in the world, and a very real threat to children — and adults! Though once declared eradicated in the US, we've seen an alarming rise in the number of cases across the country in recent months. Rac
It’s spring! It’s time to dust off the swing set, wipe the dirt off the slide, and grease up those swings. We’re going to play outside (and try not to get hurt…)! Rachel and Dr. Navsaria break down how all the ways to keep kids safe, active, an
Rachel and Dr. Navsaria break down all things ears: healthy ears, not-so-healthy ears, ear wax, ear infections, hearing, and everything else to look out for (or is it "listen for"?) when it comes to ears in an early childhood setting.
How do you define a fever? What's the best way to take a temperature? How much medication should you provide, how often, and what kind? Rachel and Dr. Navsaria tackle questions on fever and pain management in early childhood and…a hot take on t
How can you tell the difference between fact and fiction? There’s a lot of information out there, and today we’re talking about ‘misinformation and disinformation’ - how to assess which sources are reliable, what is likely to be inaccurate, and
More listening, less scratching!  Though most parasites are harmless, today we're talking about the microscopic creepy crawlies that aren't so good for us - the ones that make kids itch, break out in a rash, and upset their digestive systems. 
Red, crusty, and oozing eyes can be hard to look at, but medically speaking, eye infections and irritations aren't often as bad as they seem. Today we’re talking all about eye health – including “pink eye” (or conjunctivitis), styes, scratches,
Conversations about children in an early child care setting involve three people – the child, the parent/guardian, and the teacher - and everyone in that equation will have thoughts and opinions on how to do things ‘the right way’. But how we s
Break out the nose wipes and cough remedies, it’s respiratory infection season again! And according to the (often scary) headlines, an increase in Covid cases and the risk of an earlier-than-normal flu season has again raised the chance of a so
Red? Itchy? Crusty?  Or all of the above?  Today we’re talking about rashes. We’re going to discuss the most common rashes seen in Early Child Care settings and talk about what they are, why they happen, and how to approach thinking about wheth
When is a ‘goose egg’ just a bump on the head and when is it a sign of something worse? And how can we tell the difference?  Today we’re talking about head injuries: what they are, why they happen, and how to help when they do.
Seizures can be scary to watch for both adults and children, and even scarier if you don’t know what to expect or how to help.  Given that seizures are one of the most common neurologic disorders seen in children — particularly in the first yea
Color? Texture? Size? Smell? Consistency? With food bits, or without?  This show will cover everything you ever wanted to know about poop (and a lot of what you probably didn’t).
Just over one-quarter of children in the United States have at least one allergic condition of some type. But the effects of allergies on kids are not equal — the severity of an allergy can range from a kid needing their nose wiped to needing a
How can you tell if an infant is getting enough to eat? How can you tell if you’ve given too much? Can you overfeed a baby? What’s the difference between spit-up and an allergy? What is the best kind of milk for a baby? Rachel and Dr. Navsaria
What temperature is considered a fever? Does mucus color matter?  Is a cough always worrisome? In the first episode of Teachers, Toddlers, and Tissues, Rachel and Dr. Navsaria take a deep dive into one of the most frequent health issues seen in
Join us as we take a deep dive into the sticky, icky world where ECE and illness meet!  Teachers, Toddlers and Tissues: Candid Conversations on Health and Childcare aims to help build early childhood educators’ understanding of, comfort with, a
