Only include relevant details There are two main things to consider here; 1) What details you regularly give people who are looking after your children, and 2) What personal/family details you are comfortable giving to people. Think about what details you are comfortable giving to a new career, an old school friend that you run into or a new friend that you meet at the park or school. Only include details on your Mums Card that you are happy to share. 3. Include details of Allergy or Illnesses and if relevant how to manage them Keep your descriptions concise and to the point. Give steps of what needs to happen if an emergency situation occurs. Ensure details that need to be known are included if there is an emergency eg date of birth, alternative contacts, all allergies DOUBLE SIDED MUMS CARD Example 1 - Standard contact card information with general personal and family details Text on the Front Jenny Williams Mum of Hunter & Leopold 21 That St Suburb State 3000 03 9800 4444 0400 444 000 jenny@myemail.com.au Text on the Back Hunter DOB 26.9.2004 Leopold (Leo) DOB 5.2.2006 Alternative Contacts Dad (James) 0400 555 000 Nanna (Sue) 0400 000 000 Example 2 - Less detailed, though with enough information for people to contact you or alternative if required Text on the Front Jenny Williams Mum of Hunter & Leopold Jones 0400 444 000 jenny@myemail.com.au Text on the Back If necessary, please contact James Jones 0400 555 000 Example 3 - More detailed information for families with allergies or illnesses Text on the Front Jenny Williams Mum of Hunter & Leopold Work 03 9888 8888 Home 03 9800 4444 0400 444 000 jenny@myemail.com.au Text on the Back Hunter DOB 26.9.2004 Nut Allergy Carries Epipen Leopold (Leo) DOB 5.2.2006 Alternative Contacts Dad (James) 0400 555 000 Nanna (Sue) 0400 000 000 In Emergency Call 000 SINGLE SIDED MUMS CARD Example 1 - Standard general information Jenny Williams Mum of Hunter & Leopold 21 That St Suburb State 3000 03 9800 4444 0400 444 000 jenny@myemail.com.au Alternative Contact Dad (Simon) 0400 555 000 Example 2 - Less detailed information Jenny Williams Mum of Hunter & Leopold 0400 444 000 jenny@myemail.com.au If necessary, please call Simon Williams 0400 555 000 FAMILY CARD Example 1 - Double Sided Family Card Text on the Front James Family Janet, James, Felicity and Henry 21 That St Suburb Victoria 3000 03 9800 4444 Text on the Back Janet 0400 444 000 janet@youremail.com.au James 0400 000 444 james@youremail.com.au Felicity 0400 000 000 felicity@youremail.com.au Henry henry@youremail.com.au Example 2 - Single Sided Family Card Text on the Front James Family Janet, James, Felicity and Henry 21 That St Suburb Victoria 3000 03 9800 4444 Janet 0400 444 000 jamesfamily@youremail.com.au AGED CARD Example 1 - Double Sided Aged Card Text on Front of Card Betty Jones Cameron Close Retirement Village Unit 1 100 Warrigal Road Surrey Hills Victoria 3000 Unit 03 9800 4444 Office 03 9844 0000 Text on Back of Card Betty suffers from age-associated memory and hearing impairment If necessary, please contact Jenny (Daughter) 0400 444 000 James (Son) 0444 000 444 Doctor Sampson 03 9844 4444 Example 2 - Single Sided Aged Card Text on Front of Card Betty Jones Low vision and hearing impaired Cameron Close Retirement Village Unit 1 100 Warrigal Road Surrey Hills Victoria 3000 Unit 03 9800 4444 Office 03 9844 0000 If necessary, please contact Jenny (Daughter) 0400 444 000 James (Son) 0444 000 444 Doctor Sampson 03 9844 4444 ALLERGY CARD Example 1 - Double Sided Allergy Card Text on Front of Card Alison Jones Mum of Ashley & James 20 That Street Suburb State 3000 03 8400 0000 0400 000 444 alison@youremail.com.au Text on Back of Card Ashley Jones DOB 25/02/2004 James Jones DOB 12/06/2006 Nut and Diary Allergy Please ensure that James does not have any foods containing nut or dairy products.
