[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There's an in home daycare we are considering that requires a month tuition (non refundable) to hold a spot. This is seven months out from when I'll be needing it. Is this common practice? Id be happy to pay a registration/wait list fee or even a week tuition (which I've seen required elsewhere) but a month seems kind of steep. [b]Who knows what could happen between now and then that forces us to reconsider.[/b][/quote] I think that's the point. If they are holding the spot for you, that means that they might be turning down other interested families. If they turn down other families and then you change your mind at the last minute, that puts them in a tough spot, especially for a smaller place where each kid is a big percentage of their income.[/quote]
