Tuition

TUITION:

Tuition for care during our standard hours is $325 a week and includes meals.

Parents are expected to provide diapers, wipes, and formula. If the child has special dietary restrictions, the parent must provide meals.

PAYMENT:

Payment for childcare is due each Friday morning prior to the week’s care or Friday evening. For your convenience, you can pay two weeks in advance or a month in advance to avoid any late fees. I accept cash, money order or check payments.  A $10 fee is added onto the regular week’s payment for each day that payment is late.  If I am given a check that bounces, then there will be a $30 fee added onto your usual payment (due to charges that the bounced check causes with the bank).  If a second check bounces then I will only accept cash payments from then on.  If payment continues to be a problem, then care could be discontinued.

– If the daycare is closed due to a recognized state holiday, your weekly payment is still due in full for that week.

-If the daycare is closed for 1-2 days in one week, your weekly payment is still due in full for that week.

-If the daycare is closed 3 days or more in a week, then your weekly rate will be prorated.

-If the daycare is closed all week for a personal vacation or emergency, no payment will be due.  I will always notify you in advance of any daycare closures.

-If your child is out sick, your payment is still due in full for that week. Please keep in mind that you are paying to hold your child’s space whether they are there are not.

If you are planning a vacation please let me know at least 2 weeks in advance. While on vacation, you must pay your regular fees in order to hold your child’s space. If payment is not paid, your child will not have a space. These rules are for full and part time children. By paying your regular daycare fee each week, you are holding your child’s space.

LATE FEES:

If you will be late picking up your child, I ask that you please call or text me and let me know ASAP. The daycare is closed promptly at 5:30 p.m.  Picking up after 5:30 p.m. will result in late charges.  If there is an avoidable emergency and you are late to pick up, you will be asked to pay a late fee of $1.00 per minute which can be added onto your next usual weekly fee.  Chronic late pick-ups will be a reason for care being discontinued.  Please be considerate.
