Should I sign a daycare liability clause?

Many daycares require parents to sign a document called the daycare liability clause that will waive parent’s right to sue the daycare, should their child be harmed under their care. It is common for unsuspecting parents sign this document without this knowledge. It is important to understand your rights. With the assistance of an experienced personal injury attorney, it is possible to hold a daycare liable for any harm done to your child, if you have signed a daycare liability clause or not.

What are some signs of daycare neglect or abuse?

Some of the signs to be alert for if you believe your child is a victim of daycare neglect or abuse are as follows:

  • Failing to put away cleaning products, office supplies, such as paper clips or staplers, and more that are choking hazards or toxic risks to children. Daycares are responsible for ensuring they put away all things that may present hazards to children.
  • Rusty playground equipment, broken glass, or any other safety hazards outdoors present serious risks.
  • Your child complains that they are hungry or thirsty when they return home. Your child unexpectedly loses weight. This may indicate that the daycare has malnourished your child.
