There is a new board-certification which pediatricians can obtain.  It is a certification in the sub-specialty of child abuse pediatrics.  You can read about the requirements to sit for certification here.

Yes.  Otherwise, it may be difficult to settle a claim or collect on a judgment if the case goes to trial.  You can ask your daycare if they have insurance.  If they don't, you may want to pick a new daycare.

Yes.  A daycare owner has an obligation to protect children in daycare.  If you have a child who was bitten by a dog in daycare, he or she has legal rights which our firm can enforce.
