PROTECT THE KIDS YOU LOVE FROM BOTTLE WARMER BURNS
At Home and at Daycare
Bottle warmers are great little devices: They can heat up breast milk or formula, warm jars of baby food, and even sanitize pacifiers. However, they’re also one of the most dangerous pieces of equipment in daycare centers, and improper precautionary steps can put babies and toddlers at risk. A bottle warmer that’s left unattended or stored improperly is a nightmare waiting to happen. Our team regularly helps families with kids who have suffered bottle warmer burns at daycare. Recently, we represented the family of a young boy who was badly injured when a bottle warmer fell off the counter at his daycare and splashed boiling water on his face! The little man was left with extremely painful second-degree burns — all because the staff his parents thought would protect him didn’t do their jobs properly.
Something like that should never happen at a daycare facility. It’s easy to childproof a bottle warmer, and it’s required by state safety regulations. Daycare workers are required to make sure that bottle warmers are:
This needs to stop, and you can help us make that happen. If your child or the child of someone you know has suffered a bottle warmer burn at daycare, please reach out to us right away by calling or visiting our website. The more facilities we hold accountable, the more kids we can protect! At The Button Law Firm, our team works hard to make sure families have closure and are able to move forward after traumatic incidents like bottle warmer burns. That means we work to help them recover fair damages for things like their child’s medical bills, physical pain, emotional suffering, and disfigurement caused by the burn. We can even seek compensation for the income they lost caring for their injured kiddo. We’ll do whatever it takes to make things right.
• Located on a counter • Properly secured • Free from dangling cords
In the best daycare facilities, bottle warmers are kept in a separate room that children can’t access. You can use these same strategies if you have a bottle warmer at home. Unfortunately, too many daycare providers fail to follow these rules, either because they’re understaffed or undertrained. Worse, occasionally daycare workers will use bottle warmers to intentionally abuse children.
