Your child may not return to Kidztime until those charges are paid. Any child(ren) left past 6:00 p.m. more than two times will no longer be able to attend Kidztime that school year.**Please be sure to have a backup plan in case of emergencies or if you are unable to pick up on time.

Fees & Billing

A non-refundable registration fee of $20 per family is due at the time of registration to ensure that a spot is held for your child. Spots will not be held if the paperwork is not filled out in its entirety, or if the registration fee is not paid. Fees will be accepted by EZPay (at time of registration) or cash/Money Order.

Tuition is a flat rate of $10.00 per day for Morning Kidztime, $15.00 per day for Afternoon Kidztime, and $20.00 for Early Release Friday Afternoon Kidztime. (There is a discounted rate for siblings, please speak with the coordinator for details.)

We use the Brightwheel app for checkin, checkout, and billing. This is a free app that will need to be downloaded. Tuition is billed weekly, according to the schedule on file. Charges will be posted and invoices emailed every Monday to the email on file. Payments are due the Friday before the week of services. Any balance not paid by the Saturday morning at 8:00am, will receive a daily late fee of $5.00 added on their account until payment is received. After the 5th day of nonpayment, your child will not be permitted to attend Kidztime until FULL payment (plus late fees) is received.

Please contact the Kidztime Coordinator to change your child’s schedule in writing if needed. Any schedule changes, including withdrawal, must be communicated two weeks in advance to ensure that you will not be responsible for charges already posted to your account. Schedule changes are NOT guaranteed as they are based on schedule availability.

Parents will be contacted and IMMEDIATE pickup is required. Payments will be due upon pickup; exact cash or credit card is accepted.

Withdrawal of Student

A written statement given to the Kidztime Latchkey Coordinator, giving at least two-week notice, by parent or legal guardian, is required to withdraw student(s) from the program. If notice is not given two weeks ,the parent will still be responsible to pay the current balance. Please note that once a student is withdrawn for a month of Kidztime, you must re-enroll your child for any future months, as well as pay an additional $20.00 registration fee. There is no guarantee that there will be availability the following month for the dates and times requested.

AMA reserves the right to exercise immediate withdrawal of any student or individual if it is deemed that such person(s) fails to abide by the rules established for the program. Written notice will be sent to parent or legal guardian explaining reasons for withdrawal.
