Coverage Options
Property Exposure
Property exposure in daycare facilities can be significant due to the presence of extensive equipment and materials. All wiring should be up to code, with circuit breakers and fuse boxes that cannot be overridden. The presence of paper and other combustible materials increases fire risk. If cooking is done on the premises, proper safety measures should be in place to minimize fire hazards. Ensuring a clean and well-maintained environment is crucial to prevent potential fire losses.
Crime Exposure
Employee dishonesty is a major concern. To mitigate this risk, it is essential to separate job duties such as ordering, billing, and disbursement and reconcile them regularly. Conducting annual audits can help detect and prevent dishonest activities. These measures are vital in maintaining the integrity of your daycare’s financial operations.
Inland Marine Exposure
Inland marine exposure includes coverage for accounts receivable, computers, and valuable papers (such as student records). Ensuring duplicates of all critical data are stored off-premises can prevent loss in case of a disaster. This type of coverage is crucial to protect your daycare’s essential records and equipment.
Occupier’s Liability
Liability exposure is extremely high when dealing with young children. Maintaining an appropriate adult/child ratio is essential to ensure adequate supervision. Conducting regular evacuation drills and training instructors and aides for emergencies can enhance safety. Performing thorough reference and criminal background checks on all staff, ensuring the building is locked with limited access, and regularly inspecting and maintaining playground equipment are vital measures to ensure the safety and protection of the children.
Abuse and Molestation Exposure
Protecting children from abuse is a critical responsibility. Conducting thorough background checks on all staff, ensuring continuous supervision of children, and having strict reporting protocols for all allegations of abuse are essential. Specialized coverage can be purchased to offer more comprehensive protection for the institution, emphasizing the importance of vigilance and accountability.
Automobile Liability
If your facility provides transportation for students, staff, or visitors, it is crucial to ensure all drivers have the appropriate licenses for transporting children. Monitoring motor vehicle records (MVRs) for all drivers regularly and keeping all vehicles well-maintained with records kept centrally are essential measures to prevent potential risks associated with transportation.
Workplace Safety Exposure
Addressing workplace safety exposure is vital to protect staff from injuries. Implementing measures to prevent back injuries, lifting hernias, sprains, and strains is necessary. Reviewing the type of activities provided and the social environment can help minimize risks and ensure a safe working environment for all employees.
Why Insure Your Daycare?
Insuring your daycare is essential to safeguard your business against a variety of risks. From property damage and employee dishonesty to liability for accidents and abuse allegations, the potential exposures in a daycare environment are significant. Adequate insurance coverage ensures that your business can continue to operate smoothly, even in the face of unforeseen incidents. It also demonstrates your commitment to providing a safe and secure environment for the children, staff, and parents who rely on your services.
Who Is This For?
This insurance is ideal for daycare and pre-kindergarten program operators who want to protect their business, staff, and the children in their care. If you run a facility that provides early childhood education and daycare services for working parents, this coverage is tailored to meet your specific needs and address the unique risks associated with your operations.
