Well, we're sorry to tell you but no, insurance, in some cases, is very important. In fact, today we're going to explain to you why liability insurance is a must-have.
What is liability insurance?
Remember your college application at the beginning of the year? They asked you for a certificate of civil liability, right? So, if you ever cause any damage during your studies or your internship, your insurance will cover it. And the same goes for your babysitting! It is useful to remember that there is no such thing as zero risk. So, in case of an accident while babysitting, you can quickly find yourself in trouble. Moreover, unlike an employee in a company, you, as a micro-entrepreneur, are not automatically insured. Be prepared and take out a civil liability insurance for your professional activity. This insurance will cover any damage suffered or caused by you or by the children you will be looking after.
