Daycare Center Fires. U.S. Fire Administration Topical Fire Research Series, Volume 2, Issue 15, November 2001 (Rev. March 2002)
In 1997, 77% of preschool children with employed mothers were cared for in child-care centers, in family childcare located in providers' homes, by relatives, or by nannies for a least some period of time during the week. Each year between 1996 and 1998, approximately 325 fires were reported in structures classified as daycare centers. These fires rarely injure or kill anyone-less than 10 injuries or fatalities each year-but they cause an average of $1.6 million in property loss. This report examines the causes and characteristics of daycare center fires.
