Private Pay
Rates:
Payment for all children is due weekly. After an account is over 30
days in arrears, all early childhood services will be discontinued
until the account is paid up in full. There is a one-time
enrollment fee for each child - $10.00 for first child and $5.00/each
for all other children in a family. If a child is approved by IDHS for
some part days during the summer months, then any daily activity fees
associated with school age summer activities that the child attends on
part days, such as swimming, are to be paid by the parent separate from
their copay. Re: Assistance Program: If a child's attendance
falls
below the required 80% attendance rate, Kiddie Kollege/WCELC has the
right to
terminate services. If your child will not be attending due to vacation
(prior to the vacation), illness or any other reason, you are required
to notify the office.

There is a 2 half/full day minimum attendance for all children prek age
and under. Fees are based on individual enrollment agreements, not
atttendance. This attendance policy does NOT apply to school age
children attending holiday or summers. Families will be given one week
unpaid days for vacation and any time a child is hospitalized. Families
whose children attend during the regular school year may "drop
in" during the summer months (Kiddie Kollege site only). Parents should
provide their work schedule to the office each week so staff can be
scheduled accordingly. If you do not notify the office when your child
will not be attending a schedule day, you will be charged a lunch fee
of $2.00.
NOTE: Hours: The center is open Monday through
Friday, from 6:30 a.m. until 5:30p.m. (unless posted differently).
Late Fees: Please remember closing time. A charge of $1.00 per minute
after closing time will be made for each child picked up late, unless
extended care has been arranged.
