California Daycare & After-School Injuries: What to Do Next | Nahama Law
When you leave your child at a daycare or after-school program, you expect them to be supervised in a safe environment. If your child comes home injured, you may immediately have questions: What happened? Was someone supervising my child? Could the injury have been prevented? And what should you do next?
A child injured at a California daycare or after-school program may have been hurt because of an accident, inadequate supervision, unsafe equipment, dangerous conditions, or another form of negligence. In more serious situations, an injury may also raise concerns about abuse or neglect.
If your child has been injured while in the care of a daycare or after-school program, your first priorities should be getting appropriate medical care, documenting what happened, and preserving evidence.
