All accounts must be current or my child will not be allowed to attend that week. Non-payment will result in termination. After 3 NSF's charges you account will result to cash only basis.
CONTRACTED/APPROVED HOURS AND OVERTIME
My child-care fees are based on enrollment for a full-time week (the time kept available for my child), not on attendance. This means I must pay even if my child is absent (for any reason).
- My contracted days for child care are Monday through Friday from 7:15a.m. to 5:30p.m.
- Overtime will be considered as drop-off before my contracted drop-off time of a.m. and pick up after my contracted pick time of p.m.
- If I get prior approval from Karri, my child can arrive as early as a.m. and depart as late as p.m. without an additional late or overtime fee.
- If I have not received prior approval from Karri for my child to arrive earlier or depart later than my contracted time, I will be charged a late fee of $5.00 per every 10 minutes per day.
Overtime outside of my "prior approval times" may be approved in a SPECIAL OR EMERGENCY SITUATION. Bad weather or transportation crisis will be taken into consideration and late fee will be waived.
Each family is contracted for a specific set of hours.
Excessive lateness will be grounds for termination.
HOLIDAYS
I understand that I need to pay Karri for the following nine holidays (in which her child care is closed) according to my regular child care fees. If the holiday falls on Saturday Karri will take the Friday before as a closed and paid holiday. If the holiday falls on a Sunday Karri will take the Monday after as a closed and paid holiday. The nine paid holidays are:
- New Year's Day
- Memorial Day
- Independence Day
- Labor Day
- Thanksgiving Day and the Day after
- Christmas Eve Day, Christmas Day, and the Day after.
I will close every year from Christmas Eve until New Year's Day.
KARRI'S VACATION/TIME OFF
Karri takes 8 days of paid vacation and I am expected to pay Karri during this time. Karri reserves the right to take up to five additional unpaid days off for vacation, doctor/dentist appointments, school activities, etc...
Karri will give a minimum of a 14 day notice. However, most likely you will have a 30 day notice. For an extended vacation, a notice of a 90 day minimum will most likely occur. Of course, I do not need to take vacation during Karri's vacation, but, it is my responsibility to find back-up care for my child during this time. I always ask all parents to find back up care for an emergency.
Karri does not need to give any notice in the event that one of her family members passes away. In this case days off will be unpaid. If any of Karri's family members (immediate or family of origin) become hospitalized or pass away, she may take an indefinite number of days off depending on the situation. In this case, either Karri or I the parent are free to terminate the child care services and the child care contract without notice. In this case, I the parent must pay for all services already rendered.
POLICIES
I agree to comply with all "Policies" section of the parent handbook. Not complying with the policies could result in the termination of the child care contract.
TERMINATION If I decide to remove my child from Karri's child care I will give at least a two-week written notice. If I decide to remove my child before the two-week notice is up. I will still be expected to pay for this two-week period. This notice does not apply during the first 30 calendar days of care unless a sibling was currently enrolled.
The date my child/children, ,started at Little Foxes Childcare:
