ICE Cards (In Case of Emergency)
Be prepared for the unexpected with our FREE In Case of Emergency (ICE) Cards.
When you're caring for children, emergencies can happen anywhere—a school pickup, playdate, activity, road trip, or everyday outing. Having important information readily available can make a stressful situation a little easier to navigate.
Our In Case of Emergency Cards are designed for nannies, parents, newborn care specialists, babysitters, and other caregivers to keep essential information for each child close at hand.
What's Included
Each ICE card provides space to record important information, including:
- Child's name, home address, and home phone
- Parent names and contact information
- Parent work phone numbers
- An alternate emergency contact
- Primary care physician and phone number
- Primary dentist and phone number
- Current medical conditions and allergies
- Medications
- Blood type
- Birth date
- Hair and eye color
- A current photo of the child
Keep Them Where You Need Them
Our cards are designed to be kept in multiple locations so important information is accessible when you're on the go.
We recommend:
🚗 Keeping a copy with the child's car seat
🎒 Keeping the larger card in a diaper bag or nanny bag
👛 Keeping smaller cards in your wallet
📱 Updating your cards annually or whenever important information changes
A Simple Tool for an Important Job
As caregivers, we hope we'll never need this information in an emergency—but being prepared is part of providing safe, professional care.
Take a few minutes to complete a card for each child in your care, keep copies in the places you regularly go, and update them as information changes.
Download your FREE ICE Cards today and give yourself one more layer of preparedness wherever your childcare adventures take you. 💛
For informational and organizational purposes only. Always follow your family's, employer's, and healthcare provider's emergency procedures and recommendations.
