Hi Anonymous,

If your child has had both doses of the MMR vaccine, then she should be 100% protected from Measles, Mumps, or Rubella. If your baby has only had one dose, usually this is enough to protect her up to 95% from getting any of the three diseases, however, it would be wise to keep your baby away from the other baby for the time being.

All the best!
