If you are looking for Great MD Daycare Insurance, you came to the right spot.
Maryland Day Care owners have many concerns
- Loss of a child’s life
- The loss of their business income
- Damage, theft, or loss of their physical property
- and the loss of their reputation
The right daycare insurance plan can address all of these issues.
Being a child care provider is very stressful whether you are operating the daycare in your home or in a separate building. A minor claim can destroy your reputation and your future business earnings. That is why it is crucial that you have the right childcare insurance coverage.
Daycare and Childcare businesses can be any of the following:
- in-home daycare
- storefront daycare center
- homework help center
- after school care center
- evenings and weekend program
- head start program
When we ask daycare owners what is their number one concern, frequently we are told it is “injury to a child that I am taking care of”.
Children can be injured in a number of ways:
- a fire
- a car accident
- allowed to leave with a non-custodial parent
- a simple injury on a playground
Is your current insurance package providing you with the protection for all of these situations?
