This is in my contract:

• all days that your child is scheduled to attend are paid for including Statutory Holidays and days when your child is sick or otherwise unable to attend. You are paying for your child’s spot as I cannot take on extra children simply when they are away and I will not go over the recommended ratios.
• You do not have to pay for any days that I am unable to provide care due to myself or my children being ill. Since payment is in advance, it will be deducted off of your next payment when that is due. You will need to provide back up care in the event that I am unable to care for your child. Daycare is not responsible for finding alternate care for your child.
• Statutory Holidays: daycare will be closed on these days.
• Vacation: You may take 1 week (5 days) vacation without fees. Any vacation days above this amount will require payment. Advance notice of this week is required.
