Infants and young children are especially vulnerable to foodborne illness and even a small error in food preparation could cause severe illness.

Here's a few food safety tips to get started:

- Ask if the children have any special needs, allergies or necessary medications
- Wash eating areas with warm, soapy water

- Always keep young children and pets away from cooking areas

- Avoid feeding children less than 5 years old any food that is small, round and hard, such as hot dogs, whole grapes, candy, popcorn, peanuts, raw carrots, fruit seeds, apple chunks and gum
