Abstrakt		The use of insulin pump and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) therapies in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1DM) has increased over the last 10 years, including the group of children <7 years of age. When these young children use pumps and CGM, their families, teachers, school nurses and professional caregivers (who take the place of school nurses in many countries) in preschools, kindergartens and primary schools need to give them special attention since they depend completely on their help in succeeding with diabetes management. Written individualized diabetesrelated health-care plans should be agreed upon between parents, school nurses, professional caregivers and teachers, and the diabetes healthcare team. A structured educational program should be provided for preschools, kindergartens and primary schools that includes information about and practical training for the use of these new diabetes-related technologies.
