Am a type 1 mum and have just heard the advice for diabetics is to self isolate. I have a toddler and a baby, the toddler goes to a childminder twice a week, wondering if the general consensus is I should self isolate the toddler with me?! Can't keep hubby at home he's self employed electrician.

Any advice guys?!

Hi I'm kind of in the same situation have two toddlers who both go to nursery and am unsure if I should be keeping them at home with me but then husband is still going out to work and if it is essential to isolate we will have to do so as a family which means no money for bills mortgage etc. It's very hard to know the right thing to do I'm not socialising I'm just doing nursery run then home.

AS my wife is a childminder, she has been told to adopt the same as schools i.e. only accept children of "key workers" pretty certain that means you keep them both at home with you, Sorry!
