Assalamu ^alaykum,
Thank you for your interest in TIES TOTS. We look forward to meeting you and your family soon!
Our enrollment process is:
Step 1:
Submit Application Online
You've successfully completed the first step in our enrollment process - submitting the initial application through Procare. You created an account at this site and submitted an application there. You are ready to move on to step 2 below:
Step 2:
Introductory Orientation
The next step is to schedule an introductory orientation with you. We hope to be able to answer your questions and give you some insight into what you can expect from our program. One of our staff members will meet with you (this can be done in person, virtually, or over a phone call) to discuss your interest in our school as well as for us to share with you information about our school program, policies, what we offer, and what you can expect from us. If you'd like to come in for a tour of our facility, we can arrange that as well.
Step 3:
Submit Supporting Documentation
We will ask you to complete and submit enrollment documentation. Please find the following writeable pdfs for you to complete and email back to us:
(to be completed by a pediatrician). Please ensure that your medical provider completes this specific form as it is required in our area.
Please include as much information as you can. This helps our teachers better plan for your child’s transition into our program.
PHL PREK:
If you are applying for the PHL PREK program, please note that the PHL PREK application must be filled out
and submitted to us as well. We will submit it on your behalf to the PHL PREK program and we will let you know of the award notice when we receive it. Enrolling into TIES TOTS is not contingent on being awarded a PHL PREK subsidy. For more information, please see: https://www.phlprek.org/
Color copies of the following supporting documents are needed as well. Please scan and email them to us, or feel free to call us at (215) 387-5230 to schedule a time to drop off the documents to our office:
1. Birth Certificate
2. Social security card
3. Insurance Card
4. Parent photo ID
5. Emergency Contacts photo ID
6. Proof of residence documentation (a lease, electric bill, etc.)
7. Any IEP, 504 plan, or special needs reports
Step 4:
Enrollment Meeting
Once we receive your supporting documents and you’ve completed the orientation, our director will review your
application and schedule an in-person meeting with you and your little one. This process usually takes about a two week turn-around time to schedule. The purpose of the enrollment interview is to get to know you and your little one, discuss any special needs, complete the financial agreement, and set a start date.
To prepare for the enrollment meeting, we like to share some introductory information with you.
