Make sure you also make it clear what the process will be if payment is not made. They can stop at the ATM on the way over if necessary no excuse to wait till pick up or if you allow Monday for banking then make sure they know that if payment is not in hand in cash by Tuesday morning child does not stay in care and no don't keep the child while they go to the ATM make them put child back into the car and come back with both or parent will go to work and leave you hanging.

Also make sure the letter states that after a week of no payments ie child has been away since Tues and money is still not paid for the week that you will begin interviewing on the weekend to replace the family as you will take that as their desire to terminate care and then remind them of the penalties for insufficient notice even though you will never see any of it. Then replace them. For the new family start with new rules for payments.
