Childcare Accident Report Form

Childcare Accident Report Form: What Is it?

A Childcare Accident Report Form is a written document prepared by a caregiver to describe an unexpected event that led to an injury of a child or resulted in a near miss. Whether you work for a childcare facility or provide private childcare services, you need to detail the incident to inform the parents or legal guardians about the unfortunate circumstances, especially if the child had to receive medical treatment or other individuals were at fault.

Indicate the name of the child in question, state the date, time, and location of the incident, explain what the child was doing and elaborate on the nature of the injury they received or risked receiving, list the names of witnesses and caregivers that were present at the scene, notify the report reader about the actions taken to handle the situation, include the contact details of the parent that was reached out to once the accident happened, and sign the document. This report should be reviewed by the childcare center director before you share the details with any third parties.
