Case Overview: Daycare and Church Liability for Infant Injuries
In this case, our client — an infant entrusted to the care of a church-affiliated daycare — suffered serious injuries due to negligence. Our firm pursued claims against both the daycare and the church responsible for operating and supervising the facility. After building a strong case and engaging in aggressive negotiations, we obtained a large civil settlement to help the child and family secure the resources needed for ongoing care and recovery.
Minor settlements (settlements on behalf of children under 18) in Virginia must be approved by the court to ensure that the recovery is in the child's best interest. Toscano Law Group worked closely with the court system to finalize this recovery in a manner that fully protected our young client’s future.
Why Civil Settlements Matter in Virginia Daycare and Church Injury Cases
When a child is injured due to the negligence of a daycare provider, a church, or any other institution responsible for supervision, Virginia law allows families to pursue damages. These damages may include:
- Medical expenses (past and future)
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Permanent injury or disability
- Future care needs and educational support
Civil settlements not only help families recover financially — they also hold negligent organizations accountable and encourage safer practices for all children.
Common Causes of Daycare and Church-Related Injuries
Unfortunately, children are vulnerable to a variety of injuries when supervision is inadequate. Common causes of injury in daycare and church settings include:
- Lack of adequate supervision
- Unsafe playground equipment or facilities
- Negligent hiring or training of staff
- Physical abuse or neglect
- Failure to maintain a safe environment
When institutions fail to meet their duty of care, they can and should be held responsible.
What to Do If Your Child Is Injured at a Daycare, Church, or Care Facility
If your child has been hurt while under the care of a daycare, church, or similar organization, it is critical to act quickly to protect your child’s rights. Here are important steps to take:
- Seek Immediate Medical Attention
Always prioritize your child's health. Obtain a full medical evaluation, even if injuries seem minor at first. - Document the Incident
Take photos of the injury and the location where it happened. Keep copies of incident reports and communications with the facility. - Report the Injury
Report the injury to the daycare, church, and appropriate regulatory agencies. In Virginia, daycares are regulated by the Department of Social Services. - Consult an Experienced Virginia Civil Attorney
Cases involving injuries to minors — especially against religious institutions or daycares — can be complex. An experienced attorney can help you navigate insurance claims, minor settlement approvals, and litigation if necessary. - Preserve Evidence
- Keep all records related to the injury, including medical bills, insurance paperwork, witness statements, and facility communications.
