Payment Due

Each month's fees must be paid in full by​The 5th day of the month (or the next working day if the 5th falls on a weekend), or5 days following the child’s start date​​Completion of a pre-authorized debit form is required and fees will be automatically withdrawn from your account on the 5th day of the month.  Should insufficient funds be available for withdrawal on this date, a $25.00 fee will be charged for each occurrence.  Delinquent accounts not paid in full by the 20th day of the month will result in cancellation of services effective the following day. The space will not be held.  

The Payment Due Date may be extended to the 10th day of the month without penalty upon receipt of a written request, NO LATER THAN the 1st day of the month.  

 Outstanding fees may be paid in instalments upon approval of a written request that identifies payment dates and amounts.  Instalments apply only to outstanding fees and not to regular monthly fees.   The option to pay in instalments will be granted on one outstanding balance at a time.Any account which has an outstanding balance on the last day of the month, regardless of payment plan , will be charged the above-stated interest rate of 24% compounded monthly.   

A $100.00 deposit is required. The deposit stays on account and will be returned to the client upon discontinuation of services provided there is no outstanding balance. The deposit becomes non-refundable in the event a family does not take the space.  

As fees are withdrawn via automatic withdrawal, one receipt is issued in January for the previous tax year.  Families who require duplicate receipts for tax purposes may request a replacement receipt from the Centre Manager.  There is no cost for current families.  There is a cost of $15.00 for families who no longer have children enrolled at the Centre.  

There will be a $25.00 charge for each NSF cheque or NSF transaction written to the Centre.  

At times, the Centre may pay for certain extra costs (i.e. swimming lessons, cab fare) and collect these amounts from the child’s parent(s) later.  The amount owed to the Centre must be paid on or before the 5th day of the following month.  Any amount not paid by this time will be added to the next month’s child care fees, and payment of the total fees owing will follow the general policy for late fees. Other amounts that have been charged by the Centre (NSF fee, late pickup fee, etc) will follow this policy as well.  

 Any account which has an unpaid balance on the last day of the month will be charged an annual interest rate of 24% compounded monthly and will be applied to the account on the first day of each month until the account is paid in full. Accounts not in paid in full within 60 days will be turned over to a collection agency.
