Budget & planning

Look beyond the weekly price.

A useful comparison starts with the same dates and care hours. A five-day half-day program and five full days solve different problems.

Your planning checklist

  1. Write down tuition, registration fees, meals and supplies separately.
  2. Add before/after care, transportation, travel and required gear.
  3. Ask which discounts stack and whether a deposit is included in tuition.
  4. Confirm what is refundable, by which date, and whether credit expires.

Make the next step a small one.

Write down your family's must-haves, then discuss them with your child. Keep the camp's answers alongside your shortlist so you can compare the details before registering.
