Families are billed a flat weekly rate based on their regular weekly schedule. Each family is given two weeks worth of vacation coupons per year which can be turned in for credit and applied to any day that the child would normally be scheduled but does not attend.

Do you charge an annual registration fee? No. We only require a one time one week deposit to hold your child's spot in the center. This deposit is eventually applied to your last week of care.
