Everyone needs a reminder every once in a while. That’s true for both new employees and highly experienced employees. Better Kid Care has updated two important health and safety reminders. See the updated diaper-changing procedure and handwashing poster.

Diapering

A diapering handout that itemizes each step of a sanitary diaper change is now available in English and Spanish. The steps are grouped in three phases—preparation, dirty, and clean.

While the multi-step diapering process may seem complicated at first, it will become second nature with practice. It is important to have a “dedicated” diapering surface—one that is not used for other things. That surface should be easily cleaned.

The diapering handout includes a brief reminder of a proper handwashing procedure.

Handwashing Poster

Handwashing is a critical skill year-round, but in winter, when many people stay inside and germs are making many people sick, it is even more important to wash hands well and often. For a helpful handwashing poster to place by sinks, download these English and Spanish documents.
