Families in Midland, Odessa, and throughout West Texas deserve a law firm that understands how serious it is when a daycare, school, caregiver, or company fails to keep a child safe.

We represent kids in daycare and child injury cases to help them get life-changing results and justice against bad daycares, schools, and companies that abuse and neglect the safety of children.

When a child is hurt, families are often left searching for answers. A daycare may give an explanation that does not make sense, minimize what happened, delay telling the parents, or refuse to provide important information. Our team works to uncover the truth, explain the family’s legal options, and hold the responsible people and organizations accountable.

We understand that these cases affect more than a child’s immediate injury. What happened may impact the child’s health, behavior, development, education, emotional well-being, and future. Our team takes the time to understand the full effect on the child and family so we can pursue both life-changing results and justice.

That justice is not limited to one case. By exposing unsafe practices and holding negligent daycares, schools, and companies responsible, we push for meaningful changes in staffing, supervision, training, policies, transportation, and other safety procedures. Our goal is to help families move forward while also encouraging real changes that can make the childcare industry safer for other children.

Our Midland office allows us to serve families in Odessa, Big Spring, Abilene, and communities across West Texas. However, families don't need to live near one of our offices to work with us. The Button Law Firm represents children and families across Texas.

Midland Daycare Injury FAQs

What should I do if a Midland daycare waited to tell me that my child was injured?

If a daycare delays notifying you about an injury, document when the incident allegedly occurred and when you were actually contacted.

Ask the facility who witnessed the incident, what care your child received afterward, why notification was delayed, and whether an incident report or surveillance recording exists.

Parents should also consider having their child medically evaluated when appropriate. A delay in notification can make it especially important to establish a clear timeline of what happened and how the daycare responded.

How can parents in Midland or Odessa research a daycare's safety history?

Texas provides public information that parents can use to review the licensing, inspection, and compliance history of childcare operations.

Parents in Midland, Odessa, and surrounding communities can review a facility's history for deficiencies involving issues such as supervision, caregiver-to-child ratios, safety conditions, background checks, and staff responsibilities.

Looking at that history may help determine whether a child's injury appears to be an isolated event or whether the facility has previously experienced similar safety concerns.

Can a Midland daycare be held responsible for inadequate staffing or supervision?

A daycare may face questions about its responsibility when inadequate supervision contributes to a preventable injury.

For example, a child may be left unattended, wander away from a classroom, fall from playground equipment, access a dangerous object, or be harmed by another child while caregivers are distracted or overwhelmed.

Determining what happened may require examining how many children were present, how many caregivers were assigned to them, where employees were located, and whether the daycare followed its own supervision procedures.

What types of safety hazards can cause serious injuries at West Texas daycare centers?

Serious daycare injuries can result from many different safety failures.

Potential hazards include:

Unsafe playground equipment
Unsecured doors or gates
Bottle warmers and other hot surfaces
Choking hazards
Improperly stored medications or chemicals
Unsafe sleep environments
Transportation problems
Inadequate supervision

When a child is seriously hurt, identifying the hazard is only part of the investigation. It is also important to understand why the dangerous condition existed and whether reasonable steps could have prevented the injury.

What if my child needs ongoing medical care after a daycare injury in Midland?

Some daycare injuries affect children long after the initial emergency room or doctor's visit.

A child may need follow-up appointments, therapy, rehabilitation, additional procedures, counseling, educational assistance, or other care depending on the nature of the injury.

Parents should keep medical records, bills, treatment recommendations, photographs, and notes about changes in their child's health, behavior, development, or daily activities. This information can help document the full impact the injury has had on the child and family.
