Welcome to Kline Family Daycare. This is a Certified Family Daycare Home. I am very proud of my chosen profession. I believe, that I provide good nutrition, and a safe loving environment to the children in my care. It's vital that the daycare provider and the parents work together to produce happy healthy children. The purpose of this contract and my policies is to help us to do just that. A weekly fee assures your child's place in my daycare. Your weekly rate covers 9 hours per day, 5 days a week. Additional fee's will apply for more than 9 hours per day.
Checks are accepted the first day of care for the week to come. Any payments made after the first day of care will be charged a $25.00 late fee per day your payment is past due. All fees are non refundable regardless of the circumstance. If you are late picking up your child(ren), you must call me. If you are late and do not call me you will be charged $5 per hour or any part of an hour you are late. All it takes is a one minute call to let your child and I know where you are. In the event, that a check does not clear the bank, a $35 fee will be assessed and all future payments must be in cash. Accounts that become 14 days delinquent will result in immediate termination of this contract and will be reported to Provider Watch and sent to collections. Accounts sent to collections will include liability for any and all collection costs as allowed by law.
Please do not ask me to watch a sick child (fever above 100F, diarrhea, vomiting, green runny nose,) it's not fair to the other children and their families and I will have to say no. Please refer to my sick policy for more information. Please call, if your child will be absent. This daycare is closed for the following paid holidays: New Years Day, Memorial Day, July 4th, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, Day After Thanksgiving, Christmas Day. It is the parents responsibility to have an alternate provider in the event of an emergency in my family. I will waive my fee in this situation, I do not expect you to have to pay twice.
Children must arrive healthy and dressed for the day in sturdy play clothes appropriate to the weather. Please send a change of clothing per day. If your child is in diapers, please send one disposable for each hour you plan to be gone. You are welcome to leave a supply, with me as well as any wipes, clothing etc. for your convenience. Without prior notice your child will not leave my care with anyone but yourself. If someone else is picking up your child including your spouse/co-parent simply let me know the persons name listed on your info card and they must present a valid picture I.D. I am a member of the nutrition program. I offer healthy, balanced meals. Please do not send gum, candy, cereal etc. with your child. If you wish to send a treat with your child please send enough for all the children or I will have to say no, it's not fair to the other children. It is the parents responsibility to provide all infant formulas.
You are more than welcome to join us for meals or whenever your schedule allows. The toys I provide are chosen for safety first. Please do not send money or small toys with your child. One toy such as a truck or doll is okay. Please do not send anything expensive or with small parts that could choke the younger children. In spite of all precautions taken children will have accidents. In the event of an accident I will tend to the child then notify the parent. In the event of an emergency I will tend to the child, call 911, then notify the parent. I am Certified in CPR, First Aid, and Basic Water Safety. I must report any and all suspected child abuse. I have no option. The health and safety of our children must always come first.
14 days written notice will be given by either party to any changes in this contract, including cancellation. Two weeks (10 days) fee is due upon notice to cancel by either party. Please fulfill our financial agreement and make your payments on time. Payment is due Monday morning for the week to come. I have financial obligations and this is how I choose to make a living and provide for myself. Be aware that you are financially responsible for any major damage your child does to my home and personal property.

Additional Contract For Those On Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP)
There are certain circumstances that the Child Care Assistance Program will not cover that you will be responsible for paying yourself. This includes the following but may not be limited to unexcused absences. As stated in my contract refunds are not given for absences, therefore if your child is absent you must pay me for that day not only your copay but the percentage that the (CCAP) Child Care Assistance Program pays plus the difference daily for your child. This amount will be due the following day. They also don't pay for vacations. You will be responsible for full payment (your co-pay plus the CCAP portion) for the days your child is going to be out. This is to be paid ahead of time to ensure your child's spot is still available when he/she returns. This is how I make my living and I have financial obligations to meet. If these financial obligations on your part become a problem and payment is not made as stated in the above I will have no option but to give you 2 weeks cancellation notice. I am also required by the Child Care Assistance Program to notify them if you become more than 2 weeks behind in your co-payments/overages to myself. If you fail to sign in/out your child as the state specifies you will be responsible for the complete payment that day.
When/If you make a request to change CCAP providers I will be given a
ten (10) working days notice from CCAP to ensure your final 2 weeks
payment and notice is given to myself as stated in our contract at which
time payment is due in full. After giving notice you will be held financially
accountable for any daily no show, no call and unexcused absences.
Your weekly co-pay is paid directly to myself.
I understand that this a legal document and by signing below I acknowledge reading and agreeing to all terms.
I/We ________________________________ understand that my

~Delinquent Account's~
If your childcare account remains unpaid for any reason, be advised that your account will be reported to Provider Watch immediately. Provider Watch is a childcare reporting agency. Your delinquent account being reported to Provider Watch will likely make it more difficult for you to find childcare providers willing to accept your children until any such accounts have been paid in full. You may contact Provider Watch if any childcare provider informs you that their decision not to accept your child into care is based in whole or in part on information received from this agency. Provider Watch will disclose any delinquent account information on record so that you may resolve these accounts.
