What does Nursery Insurance cover?
While every day nursery is as unique as the children in its care, there are some common risks – such as Public Liability Insurance, Loss of Registration Insurance, and Business Premises Insurance that you’ll want to include. We can arrange Children’s Nursery Insurance and can offer a range of policy elements, including:
When damage or unforeseen events do occur the financial strain on your business can be significant. Damages caused by fire, flood and even accidental incidents can prove a basis for cover under business interruption insurance, our experts will work with you to understand the most likely risks and provide adequate coverage.
If you’re trading from premises – be it a forecourt, yard or compound – you’ll want to have them protected. If your premises were damaged or destroyed, business premises insurance would cover the cost of repairs or a rebuild.
If they are lost, stolen or damaged while they’re in your care, you’ll be covered for replacement costs.
D&O insurance reimburses the defense costs incurred by board members, managers, and employees in defending against claims made by shareholders or third parties for alleged wrongdoing. D&O insurance also covers monetary damages, settlements, and awards resulting from such claims.
EL – is a legal requirement if you have any staff, full-time, part-time or contracted. EL insurance protects employers’ from compensation claims from their employees should a claim be made against them for loss or injury at work. Your policy must have a minimum of £5m cover, with £10m being the industry standard.
If someone takes legal action against you or your company Legal Expenses cover will support you in the cost of going to court.
Covers the reduction in the value of your business should your Ofsted or Care Registration certificate be suspended or cancelled. This cover only applies if the exclusion from the register occurs owing to reasons beyond your control.
Your policy can provide you with the cover for the theft of any business or personal money from your premises, and it also extends family members who permanently live with you at the property.
Including your equipment, toys and games, computers, phones, and other business equipment.
If products you use or recommend cause damage or harm, you can face claims for compensation. Product liability insurance will cover any pay-outs should a claim prove successful.
Public liability insurance protects you if a member of the public suffers an injury or if any of their property is damaged because of your business. It can cover legal costs and any compensation claims, if your business is found to be at fault.
