3. Due to the fact that many units do not observe the same training holidays, parents will be given a two week notice on those that affect my daycare services.
4. Each summer, I take a two week period to spend time with family.  During this time, my daycare will be closed.  I will provide the parent(s) with adequate notice in this regard.

         4mos to 12yrs = $100
