§ 353:2-a — Child Care Referrals

No hotelkeeper or innkeeper shall be liable for losses of goods or property or other damages sustained by a guest or other visitor based solely upon the furnishing by the hotelkeeper or innkeeper of a name or names of persons available to provide child care services for such guest or other visitor, provided the hotelkeeper or innkeeper has no knowledge of any adverse information relating to the person or persons providing the child care services, the hotelkeeper or innkeeper receives no compensation for furnishing the information or the services provided, and the hotelkeeper or innkeeper has given written notice to the guest or visitor that the child care service providers have not been evaluated by the hotelkeeper or innkeeper. No such liability shall arise from furnishing the name of an employee of the hotelkeeper or innkeeper, provided the hotelkeeper or innkeeper does not recommend or compensate any such employee for the provision of such child care services and the employee is not acting within the scope of employment for the hotelkeeper or innkeeper when providing such child care services.
