FEE OR SUSPENSION OF SERVICE DUE TO THE PARENT NOT USING THEIR CARD TO PROPERLY REGISTER THE CHILD'S ATTENDANCE IN AND OUT OF THE DAYCARE.

All parents with state subsidized programs are required to pay for the service to the Daycare. This is accomplished partially by swiping their ECC card to register the check-in and out attendance of the child to the Daycare.

 

The parent or legal guardian must make sure that the process of registering by using the card is completed successfully before leaving the  center. If the parent is experiencing difficulties or made an error during the process then he or she must remain at the center in order to correct the error until the process with the card goes through properly in the system.

In cases where the parent or legal guardian doesn't correct the error, they must request assistance at a later time from the office staff at the Daycare for which they will be charged an admin fee of $5.00. All corrections must be made as soon as possible. All attendance corrections have a grace period of 15 days to be completed. If the errors are not corrected by the parent or legal guardian within the 15 days the service is automatically suspended or terminated. All the amounts not covered by the program due to the parent's failure to swipe the card effectively and or the failure to correct the error on time will be due in full by the parents or legal guardian of the child.
