How do I enroll and/or reserve a future space for my child?
Enrolling and/or reserving a future space for your child is simple.(1) Contact us to schedule a time for you and your child to visit us in our home. We will be happy to answer any questions that you may have. During your visit, you will have the opportunity to meet us, learn more about what we have to offer, and meet some of the other children that we provide care for. This time spent gives all involved an opportunity to get to know one another and to make sure that all personalities mix well. This is important and helps to ensure that both parties are comfortable with their surroundings and expectations. (2) After which time the registration process may begin; consisting of a parent handbook, parent/provider contract, and various enrollment forms. Once they are read, completed, signed, returned, and the deposit has been paid, your child’s space has been reserved. The deposit is equal to two weeks of childcare costs and is credited towards the last two weeks of your child’s enrollment. (3) And the final step is to simply decide on a start date.

Ages Accepted
We specialize in childcare for children ages two years old to five years old or up. That is to say that when your child turns 4 they will receive a diploma saying they graduated. At this age we suggest your child moves on to a preschool type setting in order to help them get used to being around a larger group of children and experience new teachers, in a continued effort to ready him/her for kindergarten. If you believe your child needs a little extra time with us then just discuss that with us prior and accommodations can be made. Additionally, we use a preschool curriculum specifically geared towards ages 2 and 3. This allows us to focus more on the younger age group of children we have in our care, and therefore betters the childcare experience for all involved.
Advance Notice
If you will no longer be needing our childcare services before your child turns 4, one month advance notice needs to be given to us. Whenever possible even more notice is better. This helps us tremendously. Reason being, unlike childcare centers we can only take 14 children. So when we are full we are forced to say NO to all incoming requests for childcare. If we have advance notice of discontinuation of needed services then it is possible for us make future arrangements with new family’s inquiring about daycare for their child. This helps to keep our open spots fluctuation to a minimum, and helps us be able to focus more on being the best childcare providers we can be, instead of worrying about “the bills”, and putting food on the table.
