Daycare Insurance Basics for Childcare Facilities

By Tanu Menon

What daycare and preschool operators should know about liability, property, and staff-related coverage.

Childcare businesses need specialized protection

A daycare isn't a typical office risk. You care for children, employ staff, welcome parents on-site, and often operate from a dedicated facility — all of which shape your insurance needs.

Common coverage areas

General liability for injuries on premises
Property coverage for the building and contents
Abuse and molestation liability (carrier requirements vary)
Workers compensation where required
Business interruption if a covered loss shuts you down

What helps a quote move faster

Facility type, enrollment size, hours of operation, and current coverage details help an agent match the right markets.
