We occasionally will have some part-time spots available, but generally not in the Infant or Toddler rooms. Part-time Pre-School costs $93.00 and  Part-time Younger Toddlers are $107.00 and Part-time Older Toddlers are $105.00 up to a maximum of 25 hours weekly, if available.

Although we do not have "drop-in" care, we will occasionally make provisions for a DAILY RATE of $37.00 for Pre-School and $40.00 for Toddlers, if available.

There is a LATE PICKUP charge of $1.00 per child, per minute late after 6:00 PM.

There is a LATE TUITION CHARGE of $5.00 per week if Tuition has not been paid by Wednesday.

SCHOOL-AGE CARE provides care for your child with transportation to and from school, during all school closings, early dismissals, and late starts. There is no extra charge for these occurrences, as they are included in the basic tuition charge. In the event of a teachers' strike, the full-time rate applies. You can count on us to be open when the elementary schools are closed due to inclement weather.

REGISTRATION FEE

PAYMENT POLICIES

• Tuition is charged on a weekly basis. Choose the time category which best meets your needs when registering your child. Part-time spots (under 25 hours) are generally not available in the Infant and Toddler rooms. Some of the other rooms may have part-time spots available occasionally.
• All tuition is due in advance. Parents may pay weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly. When you register your child, please inform the office how you wish to pay.
• Payments are due on the "Friday before or the Monday of" the week of care. There is a mailbox by the office door for your convenience in dropping off your tuition payment. We would prefer checks, however if you make a cash payment, please ask for a receipt so that we can properly credit your account.
• We do not send bills each week unless your account is in arrears. We do expect that each parent pay their bill promptly each week.
• Tuition fees not paid by the Wednesday of the week due are subject to a late charge of $5.00.
• Parents whose tuition checks are returned by the bank for NSF (non-sufficient funds) will be charged a re-deposit fee, which is based on the bank charge to us, currently $25.00.
• If a parent is a week late in paying tuition, they will be notified by mail. If you are two weeks late, you will receive a week's notice of termination and your child will not be able to attend until suitable arrangements have been made to catch up on the bill.
• TUITION IS DUE EACH WEEK WHETHER YOUR CHILD IS HERE OR NOT. If your child is sick or out for any reason, the tuition is still due except that if they have been enrolled for a period of three months or longer, they may be eligible for credit days.
• FULL TUITION IS DUE FOR THE WEEKS CONTAINING HOLIDAYS, unless you wish to take a credit day during that week.
• We understand that there are times when some families experience temporary financial difficulties. If this is the case, please let us know and we will do our best to work with you to come up with a realistic payment schedule on a temporary basis. It is much better to make arrangements in advance, rather than to find yourself in a difficult situation later on.
• TITLE XX - There is financial assistance available to help for payment of Tuition through the Title 20 Program. We are contracted with Community Services for Children (phone: 610-437-6000) and also with Child Care Information Services. These agencies dispense funds to parents within certain income guidelines to help them pay the weekly tuition.
