Negligent Day Care

By John Branum

Nothing is more important than the protection of our children. Every time a day care provider takes a child from the arms of a mom or dad, it promises to protect that child from injury. Part of fulfilling that promise to parents is learning and adhering to basic injury-prevention rules, like the ABC’S of childhood sunburn protection:

  • A = Away – Stay away from the sun in the heat of the day (from 10 in the morning to 4 in the afternoon).
  • B = Block – Use sunscreen with SPF of 15 or higher to protect babies’ and children’s very sensitive skin.
  • C = Cover up – Wear clothing that covers the skin, hats with wide brims, and sunglasses with UV protection. Even children 1 year old should wear sunglasses with UV protection.
  • S = Speak out – Teach others to protect their skin from sun damage.

If a day care facility has broken these rules and caused your child to suffer harm as a result, get your child immediate medical care, report the facility to the Department of Human Services, report to local law enforcement, and contact us at Carr & Carr.
