Enrollment takes
time
and a lot of attention. Choosing the right facility can be
overwhelming. The paperwork alone is extensive and can become time
consuming. It is imperative that each family take the time to follow our
instructions carefully to essentially ease the process.
First, we begin by scheduling a tour of our site.
Being present in our environment allows you the opportunity to experience the
atmosphere that your child will be in each day as well as meet and
interview your child's teacher. We attempt to answer any questions you
might have regarding your child's day to day happenings. We insist
that you bring your child for this experience - we like to meet him/her and get
an idea of what his/her needs may be. In addition, it is important that
they are explore, early on, the environment that they will be a part of.
Upon completion of this initial meeting, we allow
you the opportunity to decide whether or not our progarm is righ for you.
Should you wish to join our family, we then begin the process of completing the
necessary enrollment paperwork.
A large manila envelope containing all
of the necessary forms for enrollment is prepared and then carefully reviewed
with you by an administrative member. In order to receive this enrollment
packet, one of the following must occur:
- If tuition costs will be paid for by
you, the full registration fee may be paid to hold your child's
spot. It is important to remember that we will hold the spot for no
more than one week.
- If tuition costs will be paid for by
you, a discounted registration fee can be paid as long as the first weeks
tuition is also provided.
- If you will be receiving government
assistance through TANF, CWEE, or Low-Income Child Care, we will take your
contact information only. We must receive either a written or detailed
verbal confirmation from your caseworker or technician indicating your
household number, authorization dates, authorization limits (if any), and
monthly parental fee (if applicable). Once we have been properly
notified, we will then notify you of such authorization and allow you the
opportunity to pick-up the enrollment packet.
The administrative staff will take some
time to thoroughly review the contents of the enrollment envelope and
answer any questions that you might have. The
envelope displays a brief written description of the paperwork
enclosed should questions arise at a later date. It will
also detail specific information regarding passcodes, classroom supply
list, classroom placement, and instructor information.
*Please be aware that ALL of the enrollment
paperwork must be completed before care can begin for your
child.
