The Legal Rights of Parents When It Comes to Daycare Injuries

For parents, daycare injuries can be one of the most difficult things to manage.

The Types of Injuries That Are Commonly Seen at Daycare Centers

At Baker Law, we understand the importance of safety for our clients’ children in daycare centers. Unfortunately, every situation cannot be planned for by parents and some can result in serious injuries.

Common types of injuries we see when representing daycare injury clients include:

No one should ever have to worry about their children’s safety in an environment where learning and growth are meant to take place.

Common causes of daycare injuries include:

  • Negligent supervision
  • Not creating a safe environment
  • Unlicensed daycare centers
  • Broken playground equipment

If your child has been injured in a daycare setting due to someone else’s negligence, you have rights that deserve to be upheld.

How to Spot a Negligent Daycare Facility

Choosing daycare for your little one can be a difficult, time-consuming task.

You want to ensure their safety and well-being is taken into account at all times.

Sadly, negligence does occur in daycare facilities.

To minimize the risk of injury to your child, it’s important to spot the signs of a negligent daycare facility before enrolling your child there.

Things like:

  • Improper ratio of daycare personnel to children
  • Clutter or office supplies within a child’s reach
  • Cleaning supplies in a child’s reach
  • Unsafe conditions in the home, childcare centers, or outdoor areas such as sharp objects and edges, fireplaces, or glass
  • Activities and games not properly supervised

If you’re already enrolled, paying proper attention to your child after daycare is also important to find warning signs of daycare abuse.

Warning signs of daycare abuse or a traumatic event include:

  • Unexplained bruises, scratches or other minor injuries
  • Changes in behavior
  • Hungry and thirsty at pick-up
  • Recurring nightmares
  • Regression
  • Your child acts out in social situations
  • Fear of other children

If your child has been injured due to neglect by childcare providers, then it’s possible you may be entitled to compensation.

How an Experienced Daycare Injury Attorney Can Help Your Case

Choosing the right daycare facility for your family can be a difficult, but important decision.

They are equipped to collect evidence, medical records, bills and other evidence to prove that negligence occurred at the daycare causing your injury.

What Should I Do if I Suspect My Child Has Been Harmed in a Daycare Setting
