    Help with "deposit" contract wording please

    Hi folks

    I want to change my deposit in my contract. I currently have it worded as a non refundable deposit. To be applied to last two weeks of care. Child must be in care to use. If a family change their mind about started then deposit is lost. If two weeks notice is not given, deposit is lost.

    I want to change this policy. I want it to be something along the lines of a holding fee which after 12 months/52 weeks of care can be applied to last two weeks of care. If a child is withdrawn within the 1 year period, this 2 weeks fees will not be applied to the last two weeks of care and all money is due as normal. If I give notice within thefirst year then money will be applied.

    Any advice on what to call this "deposit" in my contract since I know there has been talk in the past about choosing words carefully.

    Thanks in advance.

A few tips...

Always ensure that your child receives quality care by taking the time to investigate the provider and by asking for references! We simply cannot verify the claims of every daycare provider.
