It is also estimated the average commercial property in the UK is underinsured by 49%(ii). This can have a severe impact on the amount of money received in the event of a claim.

Public liability insurance provides cover against your legal liability to pay damages arising out of accidental injury to children, parents or other third parties or damage to their property. Public liability would provide cover if a visitor to your business premises is injured on site, or if one of your employees injures a third party whilst working for you.
Professional indemnity insurance protects your nursery business from financial and reputation damaging claims from clients. Even the most professional nurseries can make mistakes or fall victim to dishonest employees when the pressure is on. Professional indemnity insurance ensures that such a mistake doesn't cost you your nursery.
As an employer, you are required by law to have employers liability insurance. It is similar to public liability insurance but relates to damages arising out of accidental injury or job related illness to your employees.
If you would prefer to spread the cost of your policy you have the option of setting up a Direct Debit to pay your premium in equal monthly instalments through our preferred provider, Premium Credit Limited (PCL).
