Choosing care for your child is a big decision. This page explains our full-time tuition, what it includes, and the steps for joining our program so you can feel confident and informed.
Tuition
We now offer full-time care only, with a flat daily rate for all children.
Full-Time Daily Rate:
| Daily Rate | CWELCC Parent Fee | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| $62/day | $22/day | Includes meals, outdoor play, and all materials |
Here’s what that tuition covers:
- Consistent, familiar caregivers
- Daily outdoor play and nature-based activities
- Meals and snacks (we take allergies seriously)
- Diapers, creams, sunscreen (unless you prefer to provide your own)
- Emotional guidance and support for self-regulation
- Regular updates and communication with families
Our goal is to provide your child with a safe, engaging, and joyful day while ensuring you feel informed and confident in the care they receive.
Enrollment
Right now, all program spaces are full. We’re accepting waitlist applications for openings in September 2027.
How Enrollment Works
- Submit a Waiting List Application
Parents fill out a brief online application to add their child to the waitlist. - Fit-Based Contact
If a space becomes available and your child seems like a good fit for our program, we will contact your family. - Preliminary Online Interview
Families who are contacted will be invited to complete a brief online interview. This helps us get to know your family and ensures the program is a good fit for your child’s needs. - In-Person Meet & Greet
Once the preliminary interview is complete and the program still seems like a good fit, families are invited to visit, see the space, and observe the daily rhythm. - Decision & Paperwork
After the visit, families who will be joining the program will complete enrollment forms and review policies. - Transition Into Care
Gradual entry is supported so children can settle in comfortably and feel safe and confident.
Join the Waiting List
To be notified when a space opens, please complete our waiting list application.
Joining our waitlist lets us know you’re interested, but placement depends on whether our program is a good fit for your child and family. Because spaces are limited, being on the waitlist doesn’t guarantee enrollment, but we’ll reach out when an opening aligns with your family’s needs.
