While the law determines that certain forms of insurance cover are mandatory, there are other non-compulsory types of insurance that are worth considering seriously.

- Business interruption

This insures you against loss of income and additional expenses incurred as a result of your business operation being disrupted. If your premises were damaged so you could no longer provide care for children, this cover would provide for loss of fee income.

- Key person insurance

This helps protect your business in the event of the death or disability of a key employee. Benefits can include protection against a fall in profits, salary for a temporary manager and costs for recruitment and retraining.
