Program Operation

Families can choose the days they need care; however, those days are consistent each week (i.e. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday). Contracts may be modified with a 7 day notice if space is available or, if reducing from full-time to part-time days, a part-time contract in the same grade level can fill the other days.
New families pay a one time, non-refundable registration fee: $60 for the 1st child, $40 for the 2nd & 3rd child.

Timeline for registration

Phase 1: February 16-29, 2023 Contracts for full-time care (4 or 5 days each week) will be accepted in Phase 1 from current Village Kids families who are enrolled in our school year Village Kids program. If your family needs part-time care, we will keep the contract on our dashboard and accept contracts for part-time care (3 days or less per week) in Phase 3 (April 1-May 15, 2024), as space allows.

If your family registers for full-time care and, at a later date, revises their contract to part-time, the contract revisions will not be accepted unless a part-time contract, in that same grade level, fills the other days.

Phase 2: March 1-31, 2023 Contracts for full-time care (4 or 5 days each week) will be accepted in Phase 2 from Wilshire Park families who are new to Village Kids and not currently enrolled in our school year program.

We will accept contracts for part-time care (3 days or less per week) in Phase 3 (April 1-May 15, 2024), as space allows.

Phase 3: April 1, 2023 Contracts for part-time care (3 days or less per week) from current VK or WP families or full-time care (4 or 5 days each week) from non-Wilshire Park families.
