Recognizing Daycare Injuries, Abuse, or Neglect

Child abuse involves a specific intent to harm, and neglect is defined as breach of duty or a sub-standard level of care that results in harm. In either case, injuries can occur. The injury might be physical and/or emotional or psychological harm to your child. The following examples are common signs of daycare injuries, neglect, and abuse:

Injuries

• Unexplained marks, bumps, or bruises
• Cuts, scratches, or burns, especially on their face
• Bite marks or hand prints
• Flinching at sudden movements
• Frequent crying

Emotional Abuse

• Sudden aggression or clinginess to parent
• Lack of confidence
• Changes in speech habits, such as stuttering or talking less
• Sudden aggression towards other children or animals
• Sudden night terrors or not wanting to go to bedroom alone
• A dazed or unfocused look
• In infants: regression, rocking, thumb-sucking, and head banging
• Sexual Abuse: Inappropriate ways of seeking out affection, difficulty sitting, talking negatively about their body, torn/blood-stained undergarments

Neglect

• Extreme thirst or hunger
• Diaper rashes
• Untreated injuries
• Dirty diapers or clothing
• Frequent injuries cause by other children

Children will also try extreme measures, such as running away from the daycare facility, to get out of an abusive situation. The infuriating part for any parent of children suffering from daycare injury is that they trusted the facility enough to pay them to take good care of their favorite little family members – and a violation of this trust is an abhorrent act. We understand how you feel. We also have the legal power to get you the compensation and peace of mind that you deserve.
