Additional Fees:
Enrollment Fee:
$100.00 per child, per year
This fee will be charged to your account every year on the date of your first day of attendance. These fees are nonrefundable should you choose not to join the center.
Schedule Changes/Adding Extra Days:
If you would like to make a schedule change or add any extra days, we ask that you call or email directly to the office during regular business hours. Please do not ask your child's teacher. Also, as our cener is extremely full, we may not be able to accommodate all extra days, but we always encourage you to ask to see if there is space avaliable. There is a $15.00 per child administrative fee for switching your scheduled days within the current week. This fee does not apply to adding additional days only switching days. We will do our very best to accommodate them.
If your child attends 4K public school and only needs one-way transportation to Little Dumplings, you may be eligible to receive a discount on your tuition rate based on the hours of attendance. Please see director for rates.
Vacation Voucher Booklets:
After your child/ children have been in attendance at the center for 60 days, you will be eligible for vacation time. Each child who attends is given 2 times the child’s weekly scheduled days every year. They also may be used for days in which the center is closed for holidays or sick days. Should you reduce the number of days your child attends, you will lose those attended days for vacation. You will receive an email with how many vouchers you will receive for the year. In order to use a voucher please email the office to let us now which day(s) you would like to use a voucher(s) for. Vacation vouchers must be requested prior to or within 7 days of absence or holiday. Vouchers will be kept track of in the office by the office staff and in your ledger.
VACATION VOUCHERS MAY NOT BE USED IF YOUR ACCOUNT REFLECTS A LATE BALANCE.
Tuition Express:
Tuition Express, part of our ProCare Software management system, will allow us to process tuition and fee payments safely, quickly and efficiently. In a matter of minutes we will accomplish what has taken us hours to complete—leaving us more time to spend on other aspects of the center.
Once enrolled in Tuition Express, your tuition and fee payments will be paid automatically on Monday mornings. Tuition can be pulled via ACH, straight from your checking account (our preferred method), or you may keep a debit/credit on file to pull from weekly as well. Tuition may also still be paid on a weekly or monthly basis. Monthly payments will be pulled on the first Monday of every month for the 4 or 5 week period. There is a $2.00 extra charge for your tuition to be pulled via ACH. If you would like to use a debit or credit card there will be a 6% fee of your weekly tuition.
