We expect parents to be partners in their children’s care and encourage parents to volunteer for field trips, activities, birthday parties etc. whenever possible. We know parents are busy, and it is difficult to always find time to talk, but daily communication helps me to better meet your needs and the needs of your child. We meet individually with parents on a regular basis to discuss their child’s progress, share observations and work together to set individual goals and objectives for each child.

Families paying private pay rate will be required to make payments every Friday for the upcoming week that childcare will be provided. If payment is delinquent, a $5.00 daily fee will be added for each day your account is delinquent. No service will be provided after a 5-day period which the payment is late. A full-time rate is required when your child has attended childcare for 25 hours per week regardless of any sick days. If you have applied for subsidized fee of $50.00 per week per family. If fees are not paid in a timely manner, your child will be disenrolled, and all fees will need to be paid before reenrollment.

Teeny tots will not charge an application fee. Parents will receive an enrollment packet at the end of the tour. All paperwork is required for admission to be reviewed. Your child will be enrolled in the program only after is has been confirmed that we have space available, and the required paperwork has been received. This includes basic enrollment and health information and the child’s medical statement signed by the physician or certified nurse practitioner, and all food program paperwork.

For the safety of all children and staff, all children must have their up to date vaccinations. A child MAY be exempt from the immunization requirement for religious reasons upon filing a written request with the center, and for medical reasons upon filing a request signed by a licensed physician.
