Call, chat or email the director to confirm that there is still space for your child.  Slots are filled on a first come first served basis.  She will email you a care quote with pricing information.  If that all looks good, then move on to the next step.

In order to enroll your child, you will need to pay for 2 things.  Your child is not officially enrolled without a check and signed paperwork.  No slots will be held longer than 7 days without a check and signed paperwork.

The Registration Fee
This is $30 for the summer and $50 for the fall and is prorated for the number of days a week that you attend.

The Deposit
The deposit is 2 (two) weeks of care and it is fully refundable if you:

• stay current on payments throughout your child's enrollment AND
• you give us a minimum of two weeks of notice (14 days) if you will be terminating care with us.

Your first week of care should be paid the Friday before your child begins care.  This is a good time to bring your child in and reintroduce them to the teacher and the classroom.

Please bring the following to the meeting:

• The contract (We can print it for you too, but please be sure to review it BEFORE the meeting to save time)

We will go over your questions and make sure that you are comfortable with our policies and procedures.  We cover the policies that most parents have questions about.  This helps establish an open line of communication between the director and parent.  We are always available to explain the policies or answer any questions we can.
