But when we told them we didn't meet the actual income qualifications they said not to bother. The daycare would have gotten it for her anyway and whoever does income qualify submits the paperwork. I have absolutely no idea how it really worked..we didn't end up sending her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746853 Wed, 09 Jul 2014 00:47:51 +0000 PurplePeony 1746853@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had a form to fill out, not as detailed as that one. However, if you made more than the cutoff level, you could just write something to the effect of "above cutoff" and didn't have to provide actual amounts. Like others have said, subsidies are based on the percentage of kids under the cutoff, so the center needs to know whether each family is in "column A" or "column B" but doesn't need any additional info if a family is above. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746764 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 22:24:31 +0000 LemonLong 1746764@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think we had to fill one out so the daycare can get food subsidies. I'd rather they get the subsidies to try to offset the cost than to be concerned that they know our income. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746704 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 21:44:20 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1746704@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jump Rope: hahaha love you!</p> <p>I've never come across a form like this! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746632 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 20:52:59 +0000 Arden 1746632@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jump Rope: lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746626 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 20:51:05 +0000 winniebee 1746626@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jump Rope: hahahha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746538 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 20:12:14 +0000 DillonLion 1746538@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have to do it. Same reasons others stated, the subsidies. Fair amount of lower income in our hood. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746514 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 19:59:55 +0000 JoyfulKiwi 1746514@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We didn't fill one out, but that looks like the Free and Reduced lunch form we send home in public school. It usually helps with getting certain types of funding. I'd feel inclined to fill it out, but would probably ask why they need that information. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746484 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 19:46:24 +0000 T.H.O.U. 1746484@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: yea totally not their business!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746457 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 19:35:43 +0000 regberadaisy 1746457@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, it had to do with them qualifying for subsidies from the government for "healthier" food choices. But you have a choice to fill it out or not. The income bracket of the parents makes a difference for their eligibility.</p> <p>We did not fill it out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746448 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 19:34:14 +0000 Sparkler 1746448@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had to fill it out when we were in daycare and paid full price in a high cost area. We went to a large center and they provided breakfast, snacks and milk so it had to do with that. I just rounded down and didn't think much about it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746440 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 19:31:48 +0000 MrsH 1746440@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jump Rope: bwahaha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746422 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 19:26:22 +0000 lawbee11 1746422@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lilteacherbee: Ohhh that makes sense. Then yeah, I'd go ahead and fill it out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746416 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 19:23:02 +0000 MamaMoose 1746416@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jump Rope: best HB comment of the week. High five. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746410 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 19:21:13 +0000 matador84 1746410@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Does your daycare charge you on a sliding scale?<br /> I'd just skip it personally and turn it in like that. If they brought it up, I'd just tell them I'm not filling it out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746409 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 19:20:48 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1746409@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Can you write bitch, please across the form? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746401 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 19:18:10 +0000 Adira 1746401@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, we had a form like this. Same as what @MamaG: and @lilteacherbee: mentioned. It was a state funded program, so they needed to provide this kind of information. But we could opt out I think. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746395 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 19:15:23 +0000 lilteacherbee 1746395@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pretty sure it's a state requirement. The parents have to provide the info for the program that I teach, but it's public and state-funded.</p> <p>ETA: I think they have parents fill out the info because if at least 25% of the children are below a certain income level, the center can be reimbursed for some of their food costs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746384 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 19:07:07 +0000 Arden 1746384@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah that would really bother me. It should NOT be a state requirement if you aren't receiving any assistance. That's wrong. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746383 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 19:06:32 +0000 lawbee11 1746383@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Did they specifically tell you that section was required? I assume that's for families receiving government assistance and because you are not that you wouldn't need to fill that section out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746376 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 19:03:53 +0000 babynumber1 1746376@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had to, it's a state requirement in NC </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746375 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 19:03:04 +0000 MamaG 1746375@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: at our previous daycare we had a form like this. They were part of a government food program (where the daycare received subsidies) and we could refuse to provide the information. The daycare also had many children at the facility that had government funding for their daycare expenses. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746357 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 18:56:34 +0000 mediagirl 1746357@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ladybee: @winniebee: exactly my thought. I'm paying full price for you to care for and feed my child. You don't need to know what I make, no matter what you feed my child or who pays for it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746350 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 18:53:10 +0000 winniebee 1746350@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So long as you aren't getting a break on tuition I would say it's none of their beeswax. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746345 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 18:51:00 +0000 ladybee 1746345@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: How is that their business? As long as you are paying and aren't asking for assistance I don't think I'd give it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746337 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 18:45:43 +0000 mediagirl 1746337@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: no one ever mentioned anything like that to us. We changed daycare centers recently and this is just another in a string of forms to fill out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746330 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 18:41:15 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1746330@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>is there a requirement that you make a certain amount more than daycare tuition? Like, for renting we have to make 2.5x our rent to qualify for housing. Does yours require that? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-forms#post-1746321 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 18:38:14 +0000 mediagirl 1746321@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If your daycare participates in a food program, did you have to fill out a form that asked you these types of questions? I'm uncomfortable giving this information to my daycare center as I feel it is none of their business. We also pay full price to send her there, we don't get subsidies.</p> <p>[attach=251/14/n8f2zr.600x159.20140708_193436-1.jpg] </p>
