Hi Jay,

If you are currently working at a centre, you should have a read through their policies and procedures manual and it should have a list of policies to promote health and safety for the children. A policy is basically a guide to achieve an outcome. Here are some policies that I can think of for this question:

- Dental and Oral Health

- Immunization

- Infection Control

- Nappy Changing/Toileting

- Nutrition

- Sun Care

- Water Safety

- Rest and Respite

Hopefully this should get you started,

My last centre had a huge policy folder that was kept in the Staff Room, this folder had all the policies for the above mentioned areas.
Centre policies should be readily available for you to look through, if not ask for it.
