In today’s single mom and dad home environment, more
and more parents need to seek help from daycare centers to
care for their children while they are at work. Sending your
child or children to daycare centers should be a decision
that is not made until thorough research has been done.
- Is there at least one adult for every 6 children?
- Is the building clean and well maintained?
- Are there any obvious safety hazards?
- Is the entire daycare staff properly trained?
- Is the daycare staff trained in first aid?
Even after extensive research, the right decision could still
lead to a child injury due to the negligence of a daycare
center or a daycare employee.
A child injury in an Oklahoma daycare facility can occur
from any number of negligent reasons including accidental
child poisoning, physical child abuse, mental child abuse
and unsafe playground equipment.
Child injuries resulting from accidental poisoning occur
from medicines, cleaning products, furniture polish and lamp
oils. It is the responsibility of the daycare provider to
keep dangerous products in high cabinets with child-proof
locks out of the reach of children to avoid an accidental
child poisoning.
If your family has been affected negatively due to
the negligence of a daycare provider and your child has been
injured, contact the Oklahoma
