    The half fee throughout summer is a bit different though. They technically do need that service so that they are guaranteed a spot come Fall. That is paying for the spot, not days used and therefore it is a service they are getting even if the child doesn't come to daycare. I hope that makes sense!

    I don't hold spots so I'm not out any money but just out of time to advertise if they choose not to come. The only reason I take a holding fee(I take a deposit no matter what) is if the spot opening isn't for awhile. If the spot opens in September, they would pay the holding fee now to guarantee that the spot is theirs. If the spot is open now and they don't need until September than they have to start paying now though. Again, hope that makes sense lol.
