Paying for care
Child care assistance
We accept state child care assistance. The state program decides who qualifies and how much it pays. We bill the program for its share, and you pay the rest. Our office can explain how billing works and help with the parts of the paperwork that come from us.
- Tell us at your tour if you have applied or are approved
- Your family share is set by the program, not by us
- We give you any enrollment letters the program asks for
Employer dependent care accounts
Many employers offer a dependent care account that lets you pay for child care with pre-tax money. Every payment comes with a receipt and our tax ID, and you get a year-end statement in January.
Not sure what you qualify for? The office can point you to the right place to ask. We will never guess at your eligibility for you.
The waitlist
How our waitlist works
-
Join for free
Fill in the short form. No deposit, no obligation.
-
Your date holds your place
Spots are offered in order of the date you joined. Siblings of enrolled children come first.
-
We check in
Every three months we email to confirm you still want a spot, and tell you honestly how the list looks.
-
A spot opens
We call you first, then email. You have 3 business days to say yes.
An honest note: Infant spots open least often, because babies stay with us for years. If you are expecting, join as soon as you have a due date. Toddler and preschool spots open more often, especially in August and January.
