Contracts- parent's questions

[MonkeyPrincess]

Here's another question: I don't know if i am going to see her again if/before her child starts care here. Is it acceptable to e-mail her a PDF copy of my handbook/contract so she and her husband can read and sign when the child starts?

Ya my clients get an PDF version of the handbook for their reference for sure but I agree with Crayola I would not be cool with not seeing them again until the child starts ... in addition to my contract and the security deposit being paid I have emergency forms and other consent and medical forms and things that need to be filled out and returned prior to the child starting. I also like to take the child's photo so that their cubbie can be labelled and their info on our birthday board and so forth so they would have to come back to do that .... and plus well here I have at least TWO mandatory play dates with the child in the program before being left solo so I have a chance to monitor the child a bit more in the 'group' and ask the client any questions while still there to ask them.
