I was just surprised when they told me we wouldnt get the deposit back until the child leaves the daycare. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/deposit-for-daycare#post-86037 Fri, 02 Mar 2012 14:39:23 +0000 mamabolt 86037@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had to pay a deposit and registration fee...I forget how much, I think 300ish in total? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/deposit-for-daycare#post-86036 Fri, 02 Mar 2012 14:37:27 +0000 yoursilverlining 86036@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. The ones we’ve talked to are willing to put LO on their wait-list without a fee, but will need a deposit once we decide on the daycare in order to hold her spot. To be honest, I have not asked what exactly the deposit will be :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/deposit-for-daycare#post-86035 Fri, 02 Mar 2012 14:37:18 +0000 mrstilly 86035@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am using an in-home day care provider so there weren't any registration fees, but there was a one week deposit when I agreed to take the slot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/deposit-for-daycare#post-86028 Fri, 02 Mar 2012 14:29:09 +0000 mediagirl 86028@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Most of the daycares around here charge $175 for their deposit and "application (aka: bull honkey) fee." The one we found does not charge a fee. I am not sure I'd be able to handle a 2 week deposit PLUS registration fees!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/deposit-for-daycare#post-86018 Fri, 02 Mar 2012 14:22:09 +0000 keiki_mama 86018@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, a $500 deposit which is roughly 2 weeks worth of service. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/deposit-for-daycare#post-86002 Fri, 02 Mar 2012 14:06:32 +0000 Mrsbells 86002@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Does your daycare require a deposit? The place we are considering taking our baby requires a deposit of 2 weeks worth of daycare to register plus registration fees and they hold that deposit until your child leaves the daycare. Is that normal for a daycare to do that? Did you have to pay a deposit and how much was it? </p>
