Daycare Coverage
Child daycare insurance typically includes several types of coverage to protect the daycare business and its employees from various risks. Here’s an overview of the common coverages included in a child daycare insurance policy:
- General Liability Insurance: This coverage protects the daycare center against third-party claims of bodily injury, property damage, personal injury (such as slander or libel), and advertising injury that may occur during the course of business operations.
- Professional Liability Insurance (Errors and Omissions): This coverage, also known as daycare professional liability insurance, protects the daycare center and its employees against claims of negligence, errors, or omissions in the performance of professional services, such as failing to properly supervise a child or provide adequate care.
- Accident or Injury to Children Coverage: This coverage provides protection in case a child is injured while under the care of the daycare center. It helps cover medical expenses and potential legal costs if the daycare center is found liable for the child’s injury.
- Property Insurance: This coverage protects the daycare center’s physical location, including the building, furniture, equipment, and other business property, against risks such as fire, theft, vandalism, and natural disasters.
- Business Income Insurance: If the daycare center is temporarily unable to operate due to a covered loss, such as a fire or natural disaster, this coverage can help replace lost income and cover ongoing expenses during the period of restoration.
- Workers’ Compensation Insurance: This coverage is typically required by law and provides benefits to employees who sustain work-related injuries or illnesses, such as medical expenses, lost wages, and rehabilitation costs.
- Commercial Auto Insurance: If the daycare center operates vehicles to transport children, commercial auto insurance is necessary to protect against accidents, injuries, and property damage involving those vehicles.
It’s important to note that the specific coverages and limits may vary depending on the insurance provider and the daycare center’s individual needs and risk exposures. It’s advisable to work with an insurance professional to ensure that the daycare center has appropriate coverage in place.
