Lord of Life Child Development Center is committed to maintaining competitive rates with other day care facilities in the area. We are also committed to providing top quality care for all children. As a result families will find we offer a great value for the services we provide.
Application and Registration
An application packet will be given upon payment of a processing and registration fee. There is a discounted fee for additional children in one family. Prior to admission certain forms will be reviewed and must be completed by parents/guardians. By regulation, these forms must be kept on file for each child.
In order to secure a position, a contract must be signed and payment, equal to one week’s fee, must be paid in advance. This will be applied to the child’s account upon commencement of service. The deposit will be forfeited if the child fails to enter the program. Contracts are renewed annually.
Payment Policies
Payment of fees must be made in advance. We accept check, money order, or cash. Fees are based upon the child’s contracted attendance, rather than actual attendance.
When more than one child in a family is enrolled, a discount is given on the fees of the older children.
Our program ends promptly at 6:00 PM. Late fees are assessed for each child, for every 15 minutes or portion thereof after 6:00 p.m.
A minimum of two weeks written notice is required of a parent who wishes to withdraw a child from the program. If proper notice is not given, full payment for two weeks tuition will be charged.
Grace Day Policy
Each child paying privately for services is entitled to grace days to be used for vacation, personal days, and/or illness. Grace Days may only be used for absences. These days accrue monthly according to the child’s contracted schedule. The number of grace days available is dependant upon the child's contracted schedule. Grace days begin accruing the first day of the month after the child’s first day of attendance.
Use of Grace Days must be requested at the front desk. In the case of vacations, we would appreciate notification at least one (1) week in advance. Grace days may only be used for absences.
Parents receiving benefits from the Department of Social Services are not eligible for Grace Days.
