Are there any types of pets not permitted in child care facility?
Pets are not allowed in infant nurseries. Psittacine birds or any animal that may pose a health hazard to children are prohibited in all child care facilities. Animals known to be carriers of Salmonella sp.(e.g., small turtles) are an example of other prohibited animals. Wild, dangerous, or potentially aggressive animals are also prohibited. See Chapter 9 of the Regulations Governing the Health and Sanitation of Child Care Facilities in the State of Colorado.
