Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Nevada

Daycare center busted for meth lab

My son's daycare center was busted for a meth lab. My babysitter's son was arrested for the meth lab. My baby sitter was not arrested because she is saying she had no idea that the meth lab was in her house. I had showed up at my babysitters house on a Monday and found a note on her door that she was in the hospital and sorry for the inconvience. Two days later i received a phone call from her stating that her doctor had advised her she was unable to babysit kids for 3 months. She never once told me that her house had been busted for a meth lab. Not only that but my child had been sick for 3 days after I found the note on the door. I found out about her house being raided a week later when a coworker brought me in the newspaper with the story. My son has also suffered from respiratory problems since he has been in her care. I did take my son to the doctor to be checked out. My doctor told me that exposure to a meth lab would cause respiratory problems which he had been in to the doctors office for multiple times. My question is can she be held civily liable for this. She is licensec and bonded through the state. I appreciate your response.
