our daughter had the chicken pox vaccine (privately via boots) when she started nursery. it’s pretty selfish to say, but both our works were very busy and we didn’t want the risk of 2wks off work with covid then potentially another week off in close succession if she caught chicken pox. we reckoned the £140 for the 2 doses of vaccine were worth it minimise risk!

this was over a year ago when things were bad, but think we’d still have gotten the CP vaccine if we had another
We did this with out daughter and will do again with our second. Between not having to deal with the complication of missed nursery and more importantly an opportunity to avoid her suffering for a while, we considered it a no-brainer for the cost.
