Deposit Policy
Your fee contract with Learning Happens Home Child Care Agency states that you are responsible to pay the invoiced amount for the full month, in advance by the 1st day of the same month. This fee includes days when your child is sick, absent or on vacation. Fee is payable for all the statutory holidays.
Vacation Fee Policy:
Your fee agreement will include payment for up to four weeks in a row of vacation if you want to hold a space in a particular provider’s home. If your child will be out of the program for longer than four weeks in a row, you may want to consider terminating the care and starting again when you require care. In this case, space in a particular provider’s home can’t be guaranteed.
Failure to Pay Fees:
In the event that you are one month behind on your payment, agency will have the discretion to end your childcare agreement by giving a one week notice of withdrawal for the child. Agency will also take the necessary measures to recover the unpaid fee plus all collection cost, from you.
