If the spot is open now and could be filled immediate, but she doesnt want to start until September, then in that case i charge 60% of my monthly fees, and the parent can send the child once a week for half day.
If the spot is not available immediately, then I get my usual 2 week deposit, a money order for the last months care, and my 50.00 start up fee.
The only catch is that as others have stated by taking a deposit, the are by law entitled to the "service " for that fee.

If someone accepts a "deposit" but the person wants the spot ...say....2 weeks after the spot became available....can this "deposit' not be used for the empty 2 weeks.....and they forfeit it...or should this "DEPOSIT" be something else in this case
-
In my contract, a deposit goes towards fees, a holding fee pays for an open spot that the parent wants but isn't using yet.

OK...then a "holding fee" it shall be called if she doesn't accept the spot when it comes due, thx
