FEES

Deposits: A deposit equal to the amount of the child’s “first two weeks” of regularly scheduled care and a $50 registration fee are non-refundable and are due when Parents agree to place the child in the Provider’s care. A “last two weeks” deposit equal to the FTW is due at the end of the child’s four-week trial period in care if parents choose to continue care.  The LTW will be applied to the Child’s care account after the Parent given written two-weeks notice the Child will be leaving the Provider’s care. FTW and LTW payments are charged “straight up”; EPC and CVA do not apply.

Provider will reserve space if enrolling child/ren more than two to four weeks prior to the first day of care only if an advanced deposit equal to first two weeks of care is paid at time of reservation.  This deposit will reserve the space and be applied to the first two weeks of care.  It is non-refundable if Parent fails to use Provider for child care. 

All account payments to Provider failing to “clear” the bank will be charged a$30 fee.

Payments: Child Care fees are to be paid on the Friday or the last business day of each week in advance of the coming week. If tuition is not paid by Friday of each week, a late fee of $10 per day will be charged.  If payment (including late charges) is not received by the third “Late Day,” Provider may immediately terminate care for Child.  If Child enrolls in day care on any day other than a Monday, then payment for the first week is to be prorated to cover care received during the remainder of the week and is due upon the first day of enrollment.  Parents may pay several weeks in advance if they should desire.
