Starsky
If you babtsit other children in your home, do you have to have insurance?
I am thinking about keeping children in my home for extra money during the week and my husband is insisting that we need insurance just in case anything happens. I told him that we did not need it because it was just babysitting, not a home daycare. I would like the parents to bring their childs own lunch and I would provide snacks at $80 per week. I'm not sure if this is reasonable or not and if I have to have insurance it may not be worth it at all. I just need help in the whole children in my home aspect. So anything would be helpful.

Well, there's no LAW requiring you to have insurance. But if a parent sues you for, say, abuse or molestation, your homeowners policy doesn't cover it. You'll have to cough up big bucks for your defense lawyer, and could lose your house.

There's no difference between "babysitting" and "home day care". It doesn't matter what you call it - if you're taking money and rendering a service, it's a business. If you don't have business insurance, you're on your own if something happens.

If your homeowners carrier finds out you're running an uninsured business from your home, they are likely to cancel you.

So I vote with your husband.


QWERTY
Your homeowners insurance (I'm guessing that's what you have now) does not cover business liability. Since you're watching children for money on a regular basis, it is indeed considered conducting a business from your home. You need it. Check with your insurance agent. There's an endorsement you can purchase that may or may not cover this exposure. If it doesn't, you can get business insurance.

Don't go without coverage. You could well be ruined financially if the unthinkable occurs!

You don't have to but I would suggest that you do. You also need to check your local laws. In Kansas you can only watch children from one family for less than 20 hours a week without having a daycare license. If you do get licensed I would suggest making your business a LLC. This will help you incase you are ever sued they can't take your house, personnal savings, etc. They will only be able to sue for your daycare assets.

I would strongly recommend getting insurance that would cover this "business pursuit". You probably should also check with your county to see if you are required to be licensed etc.

In many states if you are babysitting more than one child on a regular basis then you are considered a daycare.

You want to have the business insurance in case a child gets hurt on your premises. Your regular homeowners policy will not cover any claim that is a result of a "business pursuit."

I have no clue how much this insurance would cost, but over the years I have denied claims to people who babysat children for money without getting the business insurance. You can't be too careful when taking care of somebody else's most prized possession.

So Cal Johnny
You'll want some type of insurance. I don't know if your home owners policy would cover you in the event something went wrong?
