Types of Daycare Injuries

A child can be terribly injured if not properly supervised. The types of injuries include, but are not limited to:

Daycare Laws in Washington

In Washington, daycare providers are licensed by DEL (Department of Early Learning). DEL has adopted regulations for licensing requirements. Under Title 170 WAC, daycare facilities must meet a set of standards to maintain licensure. As one example of the regulations, licensed daycare centers must perform background checks on personnel. Unfortunately, violations can occur, putting children at a far higher risk of injury.

Daycare Laws in Oregon

In the state of Oregon, a certified child care home can care for up to 16 children, with a square footage requirement, background checks for all prospective employees, and annual training required. For a center-based childcare center, even heavier regulations are imposed, requiring qualified staff, background checks, and annual environmental and fire safety reviews.

Who is Liable if a Child is Injured at Daycare?

If your child has suffered a serious injury while at a daycare center, the liable parties must be identified. If it is a home-based daycare center, the operator of the center may be held liable, along with any individual employee whose actions contributed to the child being injured. If an injury occurred in a daycare center facility, the owners, operators, and individuals responsible will likely be named in a lawsuit filed to seek justice and full compensation.
