TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF ACCEPTANCE

 

REGISTRATION

Before any child can start attending the nursery they must be fully registered. This is done by an application form being completed and handed to the management team with the registration fee of £35.00. All registration fees are non-refundable.

 

FEE PAYMENT

Please speak to a member of the management team within your first week to discuss payment arrangement, payment of fees is required either weekly or monthly. Payment may be collected by cash, cheque, direct debit or standing order. Any payments dishonoured will carry the banking charges charged to nursery. In the event of fees outstanding up to or above 3 weeks (unless authorised) it is to the discretion of the management team to follow the relevant policy & procedure, which may result in placement suspension. Late collection will result in an extra charge of £1 per minute after 5 mins due to staffing and insurance issues. You should notify the nursery ASAP if you are to be delayed/late with collection.

 

ABSENCES/HOLIDAYS/PUBLIC HOLIDAYS

We require 1 week notice of all holidays and a 50% fee retainer is required whilst the child is away (maximum of 2 weeks per year). This retainer also applies during Christmas break and public holidays. A reduction to 50% fees will be applied after 2 days continuous sickness. In the event of all absences please ring and notify a staff member before 10.00am for morning sessions or full days and before 12 noon for afternoon sessions.

 

MEDICINE/ ACCIDENTS /ILLNESS

If your child requires medicine whilst in the nursery, please ensure you complete the medicine consent form giving all instructions clearly (please see medication policy). In the event of an accident nursery staff will administer basic first aid. For accidents of a serious nature the nursery will seek advice from a GP or hospital. If this occurs parents will be informed immediately. If an ambulance is required a senior member of staff will accompany the child to hospital (please see hospitalisation policy). Children will not be permitted to attend nursery if they are suffering from any contagious illness (including sickness or diarrhoea). Parents are asked to contact the nursery if their child has any contagious illness to help prevent its spread; likewise the nursery will contact parents for immediate collection if any illness starts at the nursery (please see illness policy).

 

SECURITY

Kiddie Kastle operates a full CCTV camera and intercom entry system. Parents MUST sign their child in and out of the nursery on the register located in the reception area. No child will be permitted to leave the nursery with persons unknown to nursery staff unless prior permission is authorised by the parents or guardian. A password is to be arranged for any collection other than parents and known persons.
