Our Center keeps an extensive wait list and operates at capacity all year round. It is highly recommended that you put your child’s name on the wait list as early as possible. 

Once the form is completed and emailed back with all the information, your child will be added to the wait list according to the date the application was received. Changes to any contact information, is the applicants’ responsibility and the center should be notified of these changes. The waitlist is reviewed on an annual basis in August. We maintain the privacy and confidentiality of all children’s/ families on our waitlist. 

Children will be removed from the wait list upon the following:

  • Parent/ guardians request
  • Child is too old for our programs
  • Family has moved/out of district
  • Family is unreachable by provided contact information (phone/ email)

When admitting children into vacant spaces, we take the following into consideration:

  • Date on the waiting list
  • Priority status for siblings
  • Children in the Givins/Shaw School catchment area
  • Children attending Givins/Shaw School

Declining a Space:

We understand that the offer of a child care space might not come at a time that works for the family. If a parent declines an offered space, we can keep their child’s name on the wait list in the same order and the space will be offered to someone else at that time. Parents should be aware that we are unable to predict when a new space will come available for their child again.
