*Part time care is offered only in the event that there is available space. The program requires a minimum of 2 weeks written notice of part time dates.

Monthly pre-authorized debits (P.A.D) are required for the first of each month. Any credits or refunds will
be applied to the next month fees or given by cheques within 60 days.
N.S.F. P.A.D’s will be subject to a late fee of $50.00. Service will be withdrawn as a result of unpaid fees.
If it becomes necessary to withdraw our child from care, we will give one (1) month notice in writing. Similarly, if the centre is no longer able to meet the needs or requirements of an individual family, the centre will provide one (1) month written notice upon discharge where possible. Examples of reasons for discharge from Denison programs: a child cannot adjust to the program; a child’s behaviour is a threat to the safety of self, other children, educators/adults, or property; a family member is abusive (physically, verbally or emotionally), failure to comply with the policies and procedures outlined in the family handbook; non-payment of fees; consistently late pick-ups
Parents will make every effort to ensure that my child arrives and is picked up by the set hours of the program he/she attends. Child care services will be terminated if this policy is abused. (Please note: The centre goes by their clocks). Lateness will be documented and parents will be requested to acknowledge this with their signature(s). If parents are late on more then three (3) occasions services may be terminated.
A child’s medical records must be filled out and signed prior to his/her first day of attendance in accordance to the Ministry of Health regulations.
Denison Child Care will close for all Statutory and Civic holidays including Easter Monday. If a holiday falls on a weekend an alternate day will be chosen. Denison Child Care will be closed for the week between Christmas and New Years Day. Child care fees are due, 12 months of the year, 10 months at our school age sites, with no reduction for closures, statutory or civic holidays, family vacations, or time lost due to absence or illness.
