Fees
See attachment of fee schedule for the current year. GTCLC does enroll subsidized children.
Payment Process
Weekly child care rates as listed on the fee schedule are payable in advance and in full regardless of attendance, holidays, illnesses or vacation days. Fees will be collected every Monday morning by certified check or money order only, at the time of drop off. No cash, personal checks, or credit cards will be accepted.
Late Fees
Payment is required every Monday morning when the child arrives at the center. No late fee will be charged if payment is made by the close of business on Monday. However, a late fee of $5.00 will be charged for each day and for each child if payment is not made on Monday.
If a child’s account is not current and fully paid by the close of business on Tuesday, the child will not be permitted to attend on Wednesday. Readmission to the center will not be granted until the account balance(s) are fully paid. If a past due account is not fully paid by the end of the week, the child’s slot will be forfeited. Re-enrollment requires completing the application and selection process again. Re-admission will be determined by the waiting list, a review by the Board of Directors, and the discretion of the Learning Center’s Director.
Parents who are late picking up their child(ren) will be charged $5.00 for every 15-minute segment they are late. Parents will be required to pay late pick up fees every Monday. Every Friday, parents will be notified as to any late fees that will be due on Monday.
Financial Assistance
If parents are
unable to pay the tuition fee due to some emergency, alert the
Director immediately to make arrangements. For financial
assistance, please contact Philadelphia Child Care Resources or the
Pennsylvania Department of Public Welfare. For more information on
these resources, please consult the Director or administrator.
There is no variation in fees for parent vacations or missed days
due to short illness. Consult Director about prolonged illness
and hospital stays. You are required to continue regular weekly
payments in the full amount, unless the absence has been excused by
the Director.
