Payment Information

Fees are charged based on scheduled attendance, not actual attendance. You will be billed for the days your child is signed up for care, regardless of whether they attend (exceptions may apply for long-term illness or emergency closures).

• Invoices are sent every Monday for the previous week’s care, and are due by the following Sunday.

• Each invoice includes the exact due date, and payment is expected on time.

• Prompt payment is expected and agreed upon at the time of registration.

• Overdue accounts may result in suspension of care until the account is brought current. This decision will be made at the discretion of the Director, with advisement from the Principal.

We appreciate your cooperation and understanding in keeping accounts current so we can maintain the quality and continuity of care for all families

Electronic Payments Only

• We do not accept checks or cash payments.

• All payments must be made electronically through your Brightwheel account.

Split Payments Between Guardians/Individuals

• If payments are to be split between multiple parties, this arrangement must be discussed and agreed upon between the individuals involved prior to notifying the program.

• Once the program is informed, we will assume all parties have agreed to the arrangement. BASE/FITS will not mediate or manage disputes between parties regarding payment splits.

Schedule Changes

• Your child’s regular schedule is indicated at the time of registration.

• If a change is needed, a Schedule Change Form must be submitted by NOON on the Friday prior to the week of care.

• If no form is submitted by the deadline, your child will be billed based on their regular schedule, regardless of attendance.

Additional Notes:

• Drop-in Care: Is accepted, subject to availability. Parents/guardians must contact the program as soon as they are aware their child needs care. A drop-in fee of $8/session (morning or after school) will apply. This fee is not eligible for discounts and is charged regardless of the regular flat fee rate.

• Holidays & School Closures: You will not be charged for scheduled closures.

• Late Pick Up: BASE/FITS closes promptly at 6:00 PM. A late fee of $10 will be charged beginning at 6:01 PM, Plus $1 for each additional minute until the child is picked up.

• Withdrawal/Change in Regular Schedule: Please provide written notice to change your child’s regular schedule or to withdraw from the program. These changes will go into effect the following week if received before NOON on Fridays.
