Probationary Period

Each new child is accepted on a one month probationary period. Based on our discretion, the FCA reserves the right to refuse care. During the first two weeks of this probationary period, we will be looking at how your child fits into our program. If at this time, we feel that our program does not effectively meet your child’s needs, we will provide you with notice to make alternate care arrangements.

Withdrawal and Cause for Discharge

To withdraw or change registered days without penalty, families are required to give one month’s written notice, received by the 1st day of the preceding month. If one month’s notice is not given, you will be charged one month’s fees in lieu of notice.

Grounds for discharge or dismissal include, but are not limited to:

  • Three late payments, NSF cheques or non-payments
  • Three late pick-ups
  • Inability of the child or family to follow FCA expectations and policies
  • Inability of the program to meet the needs of the child or family
