Is this the right policy for me?
If you use your vehicle for work, you may have noticed that some insurers charge an extra premium to add ‘business use’ to a personal motor policy. As specialist insurance brokers, we understand that your childcare business means you could have additional needs your policy, and so our motor insurance includes childcare business use at no extra cost.
We offer cover for cars, vans, minibuses, and vehicles with up to 17 seats.
Your cover is flexible. Choose between Comprehensive and Third Party, Fire and Theft cover.
What makes us different?
In addition to the standard cover you would expect with your motor insurance policy, we offer a range of value-added benefits including:
- a dedicated, specialist team trained to understand the challenges you face every day.
- additional discounts and benefits through our exclusive Childcare Club.
- access to an exclusive discount portal offering a wide range of retail discounts from well-known high street stores for you and your family.
- flexible payment options - choose to pay in one go or through fixed monthly payments.*
Morton Michel ChildCare Club Benefits and the Employee Benefits Hub do not form part of the FCA regulated products. These are provided as an additional service.
*If you choose to pay in monthly instalments and the premium is over £100, a facility fee of £5 will be charged by Premium Credit Limited.
