1. How do I enroll my child?

Enrolling at Jasmine's Kingdom Daycare is designed to be simple and stress-free (See "Enrollment Checklist"). Our goal is to make the process as easy as possible while ensuring we have everything needed to provide the very best care for your child.

1. Contact Us to discuss your childcare needs and ask any questions.
2. Schedule a Personal Tour to meet the provider, explore our daycare, and determine whether Jasmine's Kingdom Daycare is the right fit for your family.
3. Complete the Required Enrollment Forms and provide the requested information.
4. Submit Any Required Documentation, including emergency contacts, health information, and any additional forms required for enrollment.
5. Receive Enrollment Confirmation once all enrollment requirements have been completed and a space is available. We'll then confirm your child's official start date.

If you have questions at any point during the enrollment process, we're always happy to help. We look forward to welcoming your family and making your child's transition into our daycare as smooth and comfortable as possible.

2. What paperwork is required?

Before your child's first day, you'll be asked to complete the enrollment packet, which may include:


• Enrollment Application
• Emergency Contact Information
• Authorized Pick-Up List
• Child Health Information
• Allergy & Dietary Information
• Medication Authorization (if applicable)
• Photo & Media Release Form
• Parent Handbook Acknowledgement
• Any additional forms required by New York State
  
  We recommend completing all paperwork before your child's first day to ensure a smooth start.

3. Is a deposit required?

• A deposit may be required to reserve your child's space. If applicable, the amount and payment details will be discussed during the enrollment process.
• 
  
• If no deposit is required, simply remove this question or update it to reflect your policy.

4. Can I reserve a future opening?

• Yes.
• 
  
• If your child will not need care immediately, you may request a future enrollment date, depending on availability. We recommend contacting us as early as possible, especially if you need care during a specific time of year.

5. Can siblings attend together?

• Absolutely.
• 
  
• Whenever space allows, we are happy to care for siblings together. Having brothers and sisters attend the same daycare often provides comfort, familiarity, and convenience for families.

6. What should my child bring?

• Every child should arrive with the items needed for a comfortable day.
• 
  
• Depending on your child's age, this may include:
• 
  
• Backpack
• Parent-provided meals and snacks
• Water bottle
• Diapers and wipes (if needed)
• Extra change of clothes
• Blanket for nap time (if requested)
• Bottles, breast milk, or formula (for infants)
• Comfort item, if appropriate
• 
  
• We'll provide a complete checklist before your child's first day.

7. What if my child has allergies?

• Your child's health and safety are extremely important to us.
• 
  
• Please inform us of any:
• 
  
• Food allergies
• Medication allergies
• Environmental allergies
• Medical conditions
• Dietary restrictions
• 
  
• Because parents are encouraged to provide their child's meals and snacks, families maintain greater control over ingredients, helping reduce the risk of accidental exposure to allergens.
• 
  
• We'll work together with you to help provide the safest environment possible.

8. Can my child start immediately?

• If an opening is available and all required paperwork has been completed, your child may be able to begin shortly after enrollment.
• 
  
• Start dates depend on:
• 
  
• Space availability
• Completion of enrollment documents
• Any required health records
• Mutual agreement on a start date

9. Is there a registration fee?

• A registration fee may apply to help cover enrollment processing and reserve your child's space.
• 
  
• If applicable, all fees will be clearly explained before enrollment is finalized.

10. How will I know if a space is available?

• Simply contact us using our online form, by email, or by phone.
• 
  
• We'll be happy to discuss:
• 
  
• Current openings
• Future availability
• Waiting list options
• Age-specific availability
• Your preferred start date
• 
  
• If a space is not immediately available, we'll let you know what options may be available.

11. Can I visit more than once?

• Of course.
• 
  
• Choosing childcare is an important decision, and we understand that many parents appreciate visiting more than once before enrolling.
• 
  
• Additional visits may be arranged by appointment whenever possible.
• 
  
• We want every family to feel confident and comfortable with their decision.

12. Do you offer trial days?

• Depending on availability and current enrollment policies, trial visits or transition days may be available for some families.
• 
  
• These visits can help children become familiar with their new environment while giving parents additional peace of mind.
• 
  
• Please contact us to discuss whether a trial visit would be appropriate for your child.
