\n\t\t\t\t\t\tAs a licensed childcare facility, fees are the parents\/families' share and are due on the first day of each month, with a maximum grace period of 5 business days. If parents or guardians are applying for a Child Care Subsidy, they are still required to pay the full fee amount on the first day of each month. The subsidy application must be completed separately for reimbursement.\n\nIt is the responsibility of parents or guardians to adhere to the requirements set by the Child Care Subsidy Branch and to provide all necessary documentation to determine eligibility for the subsidy.\nIf the fee is not paid within the 5-day period, a penalty of $30 per day will be applied starting from the 2nd day, up to the 10th day of the month. If payment and penalties are not settled by the 10th day, the child's attendance and contract with the facility will be terminated.\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

It is the parent\/guardian\u2019s responsibility to keep all information current with the childcare\nsubsidy branch and A Wave of Stars Childcare (relationship status, work\/school status,\nfamily income, reason for care, address, phone number, etc.).\nParents are responsible for the portion of fees that are not covered by subsidy and will be billed monthly for these fees.\nTotal tuition is required regardless of statuary holidays, child\u2019s illness, and personal vacations.\nIf parent\/guardian is eligible for subsidy they must provide daycare with copies of the\napplication and supporting documents. \nRenewal of subsidy must be started at the beginning of the month that subsidy expires, and copies of forms must be kept on file until the acceptance letter is received.\nIf parents wish to start their child before subsidy acceptance, full payment for the month will be requested. The parent will be reimbursed their fees once the subsidy is received.\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\tThe initial month of enrollment is considered a probation period for assessing the child's adaptation to the childcare environment and meeting performance expectations. Withdrawal during the probation period does not require to provide a reason from either the parents\/guardians or the childcare center. However, the probation period is a time for supervising and sets the steps for future performance expectations. Both parents and childcare center have the right to child(ren) withdrawal if the child is unable to adapt or adjust within the first initial month or as per the caregiver\u2019s opinion. Some reasons can be that the kid has social, emotional, or physical needs that the caregiver feels he\/she is unable to provide for. A one-week notice is required for either the parent or the caregiver. Part of the monthly fee may be returned according to the days that the child attended the childcare facility for the probationary period. As mentioned before, the deposit is not refundable.\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
