So, liability insurance is definitely there to cover you in the case of any kind of legal you know matter. So, one of the places that I have gotten my insurance with is DCI which is basically daycare insurance. You can find them with childcareinsuranceservices.com and basically I'll just give you a little quick view of kind of what it is that you're going to be looking for.

So, you can definitely pick the plan that you like and then add on whatever extras there are. There are plenty of insurance places out there that you can go with. I would recommend DCI.
