Why do you need insurance for your in-home child care center?
Did you know your in-home daycare may NOT be covered by your homeowner’s policy? Typical homeowner’s policies (HO-3) only offer you liability coverage for your personal exposures, and excludes liability coverage for family day care activities. That means in the event your in-home child care business were to be sued, your personal assets like your home and savings could be at risk.
That’s why you need to consider commercial general liability coverage made just for your business. By choosing Markel Specialty, you can customize insurance coverage that can help protect your in-home child care business.
