New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu encouraged childcare facilities to begin re-opening at a press conference Monday, reports WMUR.
According to Sununu, approximately 250 childcare facilities remained open during the pandemic, and he encouraged others to follow course. This is largely due to other businesses beginning to open, making childcare a greater need.
Under the guidelines, it is encouraged that childcare centers ask adults dropping off children to wear face masks when they are in the facility or in public spaces near children. The state is asking children not to wear face masks while at the facility, for safety reasons.
Staff members will be required to wear face masks while at the facility.
