You are sick with a doctor’s note. You won’t be fired. If you are fired you can take them to court. 90 days probation is how well you do your job....meet their guidelines. You will be ok.

As a rule with a doctors note you are safe ,
But you are on Probation ,and were told so
Day cares ,Pre K's ,Teachers Aids such jobs like that are jobs they have high turn over anyway unless you really are there for the kids and not the money it can be discouraging ,especially dealing with entitled parents ,
My Nurse was a teacher ,she quit because of parents ,not the kids
Most places now days want money so bad ,they don't send sick kids home .if they run a fever or any vomiting ,they are to be sent home ,though many wont ,,
My daughter worked at a nursery (several actually before she went into nursing ),and just went through a coarse on all the laws ,and asked why they didn't send kids running a fever back home ,,she was told to mind her own business ,just do her job
But when she seen kids getting other kids sick on a regular basis ,she reported them and quit
But when your on probation ,they can come up with a million reasons they let you go
Hope you get well soon
I myself admire you were thinking of the kids
some places that only care about money ,they won't

Be honest and true and all will work out. It’s common to get sick while working with kids your first year. You can always come to work with a mask if you feel you need to. Employers are weird they hate you when you’re sick at work, they hate you when your absent from work. You can’t make anyone happy, let your heart and mind lead you. But avoid being absent for more that am day or two, because they can’t find replacements. If they put u on probation, next time go to work. Let them send you home. Their mentality is that even a sick mother has to care for her children.

Dang, that sucks. Hopefully your employers will understand and let you off the hook. At least you’ll have proof that you were ill. Good luck and get well soon.

Make sure you get the doctors note, it's your best protection & they're most unlikely to fire you with that in your hand.
