PARENTAL AGREEMENTS:

EARLY WITHDRAWAL AGREEMENT:*

We require a minimum 4 week written notice of withdrawal submitted to the center director in writing or via email. This gives us an opportunity to notify a family on our wait list that placement will be available on a given date, and also gives us an opportunity to say goodbye and prepare for your child's departure. Failure to comply with this policy will result in a charge equal to the current weekly tuition rate for your child's age group.

Example: If you give notice on the 1st and your child's last day is on the 30th, this serves as a 4 week notice. However, if you give notice on the 15th and your child's expected last day is the 30th, this is considered a 2 week notice and you will be charged an additional 2 weeks tuition to fulfill the agreement.

I Agree to comply with GraceAChild's terms of withdrawal or pay applicable tuition fees.

LATE PICK-UP AGREEMENT:*

Pick-up after 6:30pm will result in a $10 fee for the first 5 minutes, and $5 a minute thereafter, no matter the reason! No Exceptions!

I agree to pay applicable fees if I or one of my listed contact's fails to pick my child up by 6:30pm.

PHOTO CONSENT:*

Our staff loves to share photo's on Facebook of your children engaging in fun activities, the beautiful arts and crafts they've created, dancing and singing, or just being plain ol' silly nilly's. We encourage all families to Like our Facebook page to enjoy these photo's. We do understand the immense responsibility that comes with proper etiquette and exposure of a child, especially on social media. Therefore, all photo's are reviewed by the center director before posting to Facebook to ensure these standards are met for each child. No child's name is ever included in any photo's posted.
