Some ideas: Kids are relatively easy to assess from across the room on most occasions. If they eat/sleep/play and act pretty normal most of the day the illnesses are usually minor & often self heal. If they lay around/refuse feeds or fluids/don't play or just spook you by their appearance it is more worrisome & requires a visit.
