Germbuster Toolkit

Welclome to the Germbuster Toolkit...your one-stop-shop for all documents and resources about illness prevention in child care. Many of the posters and brochures are already on our website but this toolkit makes access to them more stream lined and convenient.

Posters

Place these in a visible place for parents and caregivers, staff and children to see. Contact us for copies of these posters if you do not have color printer and we can mail them to you.

  • Cover your Cough poster – This should be posted on a bulletin board or wall space close to the entrance to your child care program so parents can readily see it. It should also be posted in each classroom or large area where staff and children spend most of their time.
  • Keep Me Home If Poster – This should be posted on a bulletin board or wall space close to the entrance to your child care program so parents can readily see it.
  • Be a Germ Fighter: Wash Your Hands Poster – Post this near the handwashing sinks wherever handwashing occurs. Children should start the day by washing their hands when they enter the child care program followed by many other times of the day. (See the handwashing brochure below) Parents can be encouraged to do this activity with their children during drop-off time.
