Tuition Rates & Fees

(Effective September 1st, 2022-August 31st, 2023)

Care is provided from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. You can drop off and pick up anytime during our operating hours.
Each month’s full tuition is due on the 1st of each month. If tuition is paid by ACH, the tuition will be split into two withdrawals – one on the 1st and a second on the 15th of each month. If tuition is paid by check, the full month’s tuition is due in the school office on the 1st of each month.
Rates are based on the specific program your child is attending, not their age.
Rates include formula, cereal, and jar food for children under one, and two snacks and one meal for children one and older.
A 15% discount will apply to the tuition of the older child when two or more children from the same family are enrolled at The Learning Gardens (not applicable to School-Age Program when available).
We do not have contracts at The Learning Gardens. In order to withdraw your child from the Center, the child must have been enrolled a minimum of 60 days and a minimum of 30-day written notice must be given to the Executive Director with the last day falling on the final day of the month or the closest business day. When the final day of the month of termination falls on a day that the center is not open (weekend or day closed) the last day for the child will be the day closest. Tuition fees must be paid through the end of the notice period and are non-refundable through the last day of the notice and all outstanding fees must be paid.
