Page 5 of 18

I do accept childcare assistance. All payments up until I receive documentation of assistance are the responsibility of the parents. Once I receive documentation any payments made will be used to pay any future co-payments owed. You will receive notice when you are to start paying the co-payment. All co-payments or any fees not covered by the state are the responsibility of the parents. Late fees do apply to any non-payment of co-pays. Late Fees Late Payment- A late fee of $35.00/child will be applied to tuition that is not received in full by 5:30pm on Friday. Then $5.00/child/day after that, up to day 5. This fee will need to be paid with the current tuition payment. If tuition is more than 5 days overdue an extra $10.00/day/child will be added. (totaling $15.00/day/child) If the tuition is still not received by 10 days overdue the child or children will be withdrawn from the program and all fees will still be charged until payment is received ($15.00/day/child) If payment is still not received by 30 days overdue legal action will be taken. If late payment becomes a problem the child/children may be withdrawn from the program. Late Pick-up You need to arrive by the contracted time you indicated. All children need to be gone by 5:30pm. If you arrive after 5:30p to pick your child up(without prior authorization) you will be charged $15.00/ child for 1-5 minutes and $1.00/child for each additional minute after 5. Late pick up fee are due at the time of pick up. If you are wanting to discuss your childs day with me please be sure you arrive with enough time to do so. A $40.00 charge will be applied to any returned checks Refunds/ Discounts Refunds may be given if the parent or guardian over paid and does not want it to go towards the following weeks tuition. (by request of parent/guardian only) Other circumstances may come up but I will make the final decision. I offer a 10% discount to parents with more than one child enrolled Full time (4 or more days/Week) in the program. The discount will be applied to the older childs tuition. If your children are twins, the discount is only applied to one child. Additional fees There may be additional fees throughout the year. The parents will be notified of these fees and the reason for them.

Vacation/Days off
Childrens Each full time child will get one contracted week of vacation. Vacation may be taken at any time during the year after the 30-day probationary period. You may use your vacation as individual days or the entire week at once. When individual vacation days are taken, you will still need to pay the regular tuition for the week. Do not deduct out for your vacation day. When you have accumulated one week (5days) in vacation your child will then be able to attend for one week at no charge.
Policies Revised 5/2012

Page 6 of 18

You will need to let me know if you are using any vacation days. If taking a full weeks vacation I need at least one months notice. If I do not receive the months notice you will still need to pay the tuition for the week. Your child may attend for a week at no charge at a later date, this week will be determined by the provider. You will not automatically be credited a vacation day. There is no carry over into the next year of unused vacation days. Mine Vacation- I will be taking two- contracted weeks yearly. Tuition is still due for one of these weeks. I will let you know of my vacation dates at least one month in advance. Misc. I will be taking 5 misc. un-paid days during the year for doctors appointments, etc. for myself and my children. Your tuition will be prorated for that week or you may bank it for a later date. Please let me know ahead of time so I can enter it into the computer either way. The fiscal year system will be used for my vacations and days off. The fiscal year goes from September 1st August 31st. Pro-rated days There will be days that are prorated if I need to close during the day, or open at a later time. The pro-rate schedule is as follows. If the daycare is open, or your child is here 6 hours or less you will receive a half day credit. If open, or your child is here for more than 6 hours it is considered a full day and you will not receive credit.

Withdrawal and Termination/Suspension

I require a 30 day written notice of your childs last day of attendance. Payment is due for the notice period whether or not your child continues to attend. (unless withdrawal is within the 30-day probationary period) I respect that all children are individuals with different needs and wants, at the same time I need to provide an environment that works for all children in my care It is important that I receive parent support and involvement. If I feel that I am no longer able to meet the needs of you or your child, I reserve the right to terminate your child from the program. You will receive a two-week notice in writing of this decision. Tuition will only be due if your child continues to attend for the notice period. If I have determined that a childs actions are unacceptable, or is an endangerment to themselves, another child or myself, the childs parent may be called and the child may be removed for the remainder of the day. If the childs behavior does not change, I reserve the right to suspend or terminate the child from the program, a two-week written notice will be given. Documentation of all actions and decisions will be placed in your childs file. Other possible reasons for termination may include, but not limited to:

Parents with a child enrolled may visit at any time during hours of operation, unless access is denied or restricted by a court order. If there are any concerns during the year, parents or myself may request a conference.

You may not drop your child off earlier than the agreed contract time unless previously approved by myself. Children will not be allowed to leave with an older sibling unless accompanied by an authorized adult It is required that you have at least two emergency contacts authorized to pick up your child if you cannot be reached. It is required that you notify me in writing or by phone call if someone else will be picking up your child even if they are on the contact list. They should be prepared to show a proper picture I.D. If I am not notified, I will not release the child until a parent or guardian is contacted and gives me permission to do so.

Major Injuries I will contact the parent as soon as possible after an injury that may need medical attention occurs. If necessary, an ambulance will be contacted to transport your child. I will contact my emergency provider to have him/her contact the parents of the other children and then wait until all children are picked up. I will ride with your child to the hospital that you indicated or UW Hospital. Accidents that require emergency medical treatment, will be reported to the State of Wisconsin Department of Health and Family Services.

Program Objectives
Philosophy- All children deserve a safe and healthy environment to be able to learn and grow to their fullest potential I use a theme based curriculum with guidance from the Wisconsin Model Early Learning Standards (standards shown below) A variety of developmentally appropriate activities and materials are available to encourage children to be involved in the learning process, such as being creative, gaining social skills, small and large motor skills and so on. Our weekly activities include but are not limited to:

Art Sensory Stories Science Small and large motor activities Teacher directed free choice Minimal Sign Language

I provide opportunities for making friends, taking turns, sharing, problem solving and building self- esteem. I do not teach or practice any religious aspects with the children. Wisconsin Model Early Learning Standards Guiding principles All Children are capable and competent Early Relationships matter A childs early learning and development is multidimensional Expectations for children must be guided by knowledge of child growth and development Children are individuals who develop at various rates

Policies Revised 5/2012

Page 13 of 18

Children are members of cultural groups that share developmental patterns Children exhibit a range of skills and competencies within any domain of development Children learn through play and the active exploration of their environment Parents are childrens primary and most important caregivers and educators

Guidance I use positive techniques for guidance, including:

Natural consequences Redirection Problem Solving Encouragement of positive behavior Parental involvement

I will communicate with the parents regarding guidance techniques, to learn what works and what doesnt work and to be able to stay consistent between my home and theirs. I will talk with the children about the rules and what is expected using words for your childs developmental stage. I do not force the children to apologize, as they may not be sorry, but help children recognize other childrens feelings. I will never use verbal or physical techniques that frighten or humiliate a child such as shaking, hitting, binding, forcing or withholding food, even at a parents request. If a child is crying, fussing or distraught, I will try to calm them with rocking, shushing, hugging, or give them a comfort item if I feel it might help. If I do get overwhelmed I will place the child in a crib or other safe place for a few minutes so I can walk away and take time to calm down. If I find that the child if not consolable and I am still overwhelmed after taking a break, I will then call the parent or emergency contact to pick up their child for the remainder of the day. I will use time out periods if necessary. (with children age 3 and older and will not exceed 5 minutes in length). During this time I will take the opportunity to sit with the child or children and talk about the incident or situation and how it may be resolved. If at any time I feel a childs behavior is out of control and may harm other children, myself or my property, I will contact the parent or guardian and have the child removed for the remainder of the day. If out of control actions continue I reserve the right to remove the child from my program on a permanent basis.
Policies Revised 5/2012

Page 14 of 18

Multicultural I am committed to a multicultural education by recognizing and respecting the individuality and uniqueness of each child. This means I have made a commitment to create a program that reflects the varied lifestyles of the children, their families and our community as well as to introduce children to other cultures through music, books, posters and other images. Biting Biting is not uncommon among infants and toddlers. Parents are encouraged to see this as a natural stage of development that a child outgrows. I will work closely with the parents to help meet the needs of the child. I also monitor closely, situations that might cause a biter to bite, and try to find other ways for the child to express their feelings. One of those other ways is through teaching all the children simple sign language. There will be times when the techniques dont work and a child will get bit. Both parents will be notified about the incident and the name of the child who bit will be kept confidential. If the biting gets out of control and other methods did not work, I may determine that the child should leave the program for a period of time. Toileting Children in diapers are checked regularly and changed as needed. Parents are required to bring in diapers and wipes. Toilet training will begin at the parents request. I recommend that children under the age of 18 months not start the potty training process. Children will learn at their own pace and it requires time and patience. Wet or soiled clothing will be placed in a plastic bag and sent home with the child at the end of the day. Licensing does not require me to rinse the clothing out first. Each child is required to have a complete set of extra clothing, appropriate for the season, for toileting accidents. Napping/Rest Periods Naps or rest periods are a part of the daily routine. Infants/ Toddlers will be allowed to follow their own bodys need for sleeping. Children over 2 years will have a nap/rest period from 12:00 2:30pm. Children will be quieted with soft music, low lights. If a child does not go to sleep after a half hour or they wake up early they will be provided with quiet activities to do as to not disturb the children sleeping around them. I will not try to force a child to stay awake at the request of the parents. I feel if a child falls asleep within the hour, they obviously are tired and need the sleep. Cribs, cots, sheets and blankets are provided by Tiny Tots. Outdoor Play Outdoor playtime is important to the development of young children. If your child is well enough to attend that day they are well enough to go outside, except in extreme hot or cold weather. Please dress your child in the appropriate clothing for the weather.
Policies Revised 5/2012

Page 15 of 18

The children will get at least 1 hour of outside time everyday except on days that are extremely hot or cold. If the temperature gets below 25 degrees with the windchill, we will not go outside. During the summer months we do not go outside if the temperature is 90 or above with the heat index. (depending on temperature and humidity) Pets I do have 4 cats and 1 dog on the premises. The children will have access to the cats throughout the day. The dog will be located upstairs and not allowed downstairs. The children will have access to the dog during times we may need to go upstairs. A file will be kept with all the updated information including vaccinations. Parents will receive a 2- week notice of any new pets brought into the home. Toys from home Children may bring toys from home. I do however encourage them to share their toys with their friends. If for any reason the childs toy becomes a problem throughout the day, I will take their toy and place it in their cubbie for the remainder of the day. If toys from home continue to be a problem, I may ask that the child keep their toys at home. I am not responsible for lost or broken toys. It is very difficult to keep track of all the childrens belongings. Birthdays and Holidays I will recognize your childs birthday. You may bring in a treat for your child to share with the group during snack. We will sing happy birthday to your child. Please try to bring in a store bought treat. I celebrate holidays such as Halloween, Christmas, and Easter with decorations and songs. I will not include religious songs, stories videos, or decoration. If you have another holiday you would like us to learn about please let me know. Fieldtrips I offer field trips mostly during the summer. Fieldtrips will be taken with another Licensed Family Childcare. Transportation Children will be transported for fieldtrips by contracted bus. I will make sure the bus company used meets all state requirements. I will have an attendance record of all children on the fieldtrip and will walk through the bus before exiting to ensure that no child is left on the bus.

Menu Preparation I will prepare a weekly menu with, breakfast, lunch and PM snack. Evening snack will be crackers and water. The menu is located on the upstairs refrigerator. The menu will include foods that all children can eat unless the child has allergies or other personal restrictions. If your child has a special diet you may bring in foods you would like your child to eat as long as it abides by the meal pattern requirements. Food Allergies If your child has any food allergies please be sure to notify me. All attempts will be made to make food without those items in them. You may be asked to bring food for your child from home. It must meet the meal pattern requirements. Please see guidelines located in packet. Child Guidance and Food There are going to be times that children do not want to eat. I recognize this. I will not force any child to eat their food, but I will try to encourage children to try new foods. Foods will not be denied to any child for any reason, nor will it be offered as a reward.

Requirements for My Continuing Education

I am required to have 15 hours of continuing education each year in child growth and development, early childhood education, or first aid, as approved by the department.
