Tuition Rates
Unfortunately we have to raise our rates effective September 1st in order to maintain the quality of care we provide. Please click the button below for a full list of rates.
Class Assignments and Welcome Packets
Around mid-August, I should have a letter ready for you letting you know your child's class assignment. Please be sure to contact me if you feel your child is not in the appropriate class (they need more time in a younger classroom or they are ready for an older room).

At that time, welcome packets which include a letter from your child's teachers, information about their class, and a supply list should be ready as well.
Text Alerts
Occasionally we send out text message alerts. If you have not received alerts in the past, please be sure to subscribe by texting @tlcbside1 to 81010.
Medicals
Updated forms are needed at the following dates: 3-6-9-12-18 months &
2-3-4-5 years.

You will be reminded as your child's birthday or medical expires.
Please use TLC's form every time.
Medications can be administered with proper doctor's permission and medication that matches. For example: we cannot administer Tylenol if your doctor specified Motrin. It is VERY specific.

All medication must be provided in its original packaging including the cup/syringe. This will ensure proper dispensing of the dose.

If you want medication to be given to your child to manage pain, or if your child has allergies and they require medication, please speak to an MAT trained teacher to check in your forms/medicines.
