The Reality

Parents trust you with their children.One incident can end everything.

01

Insurers see childcare and see lawsuits.

A child gets hurt on the playground. A parent claims negligence. Even if you did everything right, you're facing legal fees and settlements. Most carriers don't want that risk.

02

The coverage you need isn't standard.

Abuse & molestation coverage. Professional liability for care decisions. Transport coverage if you run a bus. These aren't add-ons—they're essential.

03

Your license depends on it.

Most states require specific coverage types and limits to keep your childcare license. Get it wrong, and you're not just uninsured—you're shut down.

Common questions

Daycare insurance FAQ

These are general considerations, not a description of a specific policy. Coverage depends on the issued forms, endorsements, limits, exclusions, and applicable law.

What is daycare insurance?

Daycare insurance is a commercial insurance program built around the risks of a daycare business. It may combine several policies or endorsements rather than relying on one standardized product.

What coverage should a daycare business consider?

Common options include General Liability, Commercial Auto, Workers Comp, Property. The appropriate combination depends on the company’s actual operations, employees, property, vehicles, contracts, and the exclusions in each policy.

How much does daycare insurance cost?

Cost depends on factors such as revenue, payroll, location, services, property values, vehicles, limits, deductibles, and claims history. An insurer must review the individual business before providing a reliable premium.

What risks should a daycare business disclose?

The application should accurately describe child supervision, abuse or molestation allegations, professional services, transportation, playgrounds, property, and employee injuries. Undisclosed or incorrectly described operations can affect eligibility, pricing, and how a policy responds to a claim.

Does a daycare license determine all insurance requirements?

No. State or territory licensing establishes operating requirements, while insurance needs also depend on enrollment, staffing, transportation, property, contracts, and services. Licensing compliance does not guarantee that every allegation or loss is covered by an insurance policy.

What information is needed for a daycare insurance quote?

A broker commonly needs the legal business name, address, services, annual revenue, payroll, employee count, property or equipment values, vehicle and driver details, prior losses, current policies, desired limits, and requested effective date.

Can Panta guarantee coverage for a daycare claim?

No. Coverage depends on the issued policy’s terms, limits, deductibles, exclusions, conditions, and the facts of the loss. Panta can help compare and explain available options, but the insurer issues the policy and determines claim coverage.
