Colds vs Babysitters?

Kayleigh has a cold today. I noticed it yesterday when she cried everything out of her sinuses in multiple colors. She also went to sleep 1 1/2 hrs early last night. The issue I had to deal with was babysitting. There is a little boy that stays with her babysitter that is only 6 months old. I didn't want to expose him to even the smallest of germs from Kayleigh but I also had to go to work as well. So I did what any new mommy would ... I called the doctor's office. Basically, no fever, good appetite, still playing, She was ok to go to the sitter. Anybody ever struggle with whether to stay home or send the kids to the sitter? Well, being the new mommy that I am, I sent her to the sitter with a new bottle of Purell and lots of instructions for the sitter. As if she didn't know what to do already. She has only kept kids for over 15 years. LOL. I'm getting there.
