Covid 19 Safe Practices
I am fully vaccinated against Coronavirus. I am also completing lateral flow tests on a twice weekly basis. On top of this I am also following a number of practices to keep us all safe from any risk relating to Covid-19 during our business together and will appreciate your family doing the same. Here are the rules I am following to keep us all safer:
Home based Sessions:
-
I will complete a lateral flow test within the 48 hours before your session. Should it be positive I will notify you immediately and discuss arrangements for an alternative session date.
-
If any member of your household or support bubble has symptoms of Covid-19 in the 48 hours preceding your session you must notify me immediately so we can make arrangements for an alternative session date.
-
I will ask for access to a sink in order to wash my hands on arrival in your home. Following this I will use alcohol hand gel on a regular basis during the session (particularly newborn / baby sessions where I may be moving and posing your baby).
-
I will wear a face mask throughout the session and ask that any adults remaining in the room during the session also wear a mask (unless they are actively having their photo taken).
-
All outfits, wraps blankets etc provided by me for use during the session will be washed prior to the session.
-
All my equipment will be wiped down with alcohol wipes between sessions.
-
I respectfully ask that no member of the family touches any of my equipment during my time in your home unless I have asked you to and you have used alcohol hand gel first.
-
Only immediate family members who are directly involved in the session may be present in the room in which the session is taking place
-
Unless actively having their photo taken, only one adult may remain in the room in which the session is taking place to supervise the baby / child.
-
Should I experience symptoms of Covid-19 in the 48 hours after your session I will contact you to let you know and advise that you limit your social contacts until I have PCR test results. Should I test positive, I will share your contact details with the Test and Trace service.
-
Should any family member present at the session experience symptoms of Covid-19 in the 48 hours after your session please contact me immediately so I can restrict my social contacts. Should anyone receive a positive test result (PCR or lateral flow) please let me know immediately and share my contact details with the Test and Trace Service.
