I never thought about this question and so glad you've asked it! I would think you wouldn't have to pay so that sucks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dumb-daycare-question#post-375649 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 16:47:41 +0000 littlek 375649@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it depends on daycare, for our daycare we are given 1 week vacation where we don't have to pay. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dumb-daycare-question#post-375493 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 15:21:04 +0000 winniebee 375493@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hmmmm I'll need to email the director. I should have thought about this earlier! Luckily, my husband and I get paid vacation so it will just be status quo money wise when we are off work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dumb-daycare-question#post-375331 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 14:35:40 +0000 Bao 375331@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually yes, to hold your spot basically. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dumb-daycare-question#post-375328 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 14:34:27 +0000 Mrsbells 375328@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yes at our daycare we pay. The only other way around it is to pull her out and re register her, and repay the registration fee of $75 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dumb-daycare-question#post-375324 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 14:33:07 +0000 Mrs. Cowgirl 375324@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! But our daycare was verrrry atypical when it came to price. In other words, it was cheap! But still awesome :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dumb-daycare-question#post-375274 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 14:22:56 +0000 T-Mom 375274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We get one week of "free vacation " a year, but that's only for pre-school DD,, not for LO who is in daycare. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dumb-daycare-question#post-375264 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 14:21:05 +0000 mrsmenow 375264@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have to pay for the time too. Our daycare quit offering vacation days last year:( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dumb-daycare-question#post-375185 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 13:57:53 +0000 pregnantbee 375185@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think we have to pay half-price if we go on vacation for a week. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dumb-daycare-question#post-375182 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 13:57:20 +0000 pelikila 375182@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes.

But - I know it varies from region to region and place to place! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dumb-daycare-question#post-375137 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 13:41:04 +0000 KT326 375137@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup. We went on vacation and then LO got sick, he was out for almost 2 weeks. We still have to pay for that time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dumb-daycare-question#post-375136 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 13:40:44 +0000 yoursilverlining 375136@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Everywhere we looked - yes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dumb-daycare-question#post-375126 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 13:38:22 +0000 winniebee 375126@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you are on vacation (and therefore your LO is not in daycare) do you still pay!? There was nothing in our contract about it and I forgot to ask! </p>
