Georgia law expects daycares to exercise a level of care comparable to that of a reasonably prudent parent.
Daycare negligence in Georgia manifests in several key ways, all stemming from a failure to provide the necessary standard of care for children.
Negligent supervision is a frequent issue, involving inadequate monitoring that can lead to various injuries. Furthermore, maintaining a safe environment is crucial, and negligence can arise from unsafe premises such as broken equipment or hazardous conditions.
Daycare facilities are also responsible for their staff, and negligent hiring, retention, or training can put children at risk. Tragically, abuse or harm inflicted by staff represents a severe breach of care.
Neglecting a child’s basic needs, such as food, water, or medical attention, also constitutes negligence.
If a daycare fails to uphold the terms of its contract with parents, especially concerning safety, it can be considered a breach.
Finally, if transportation is provided, negligence can occur through unsafe practices during transit.
In Georgia, proving daycare negligence generally requires demonstrating a duty of care, a breach of that duty, a direct link between the breach and the child’s injury, and resulting damages.
