needs, however, we realize that our programs may not be beneficial for every child and that
there are limitations in what we can provide. It would be wrong to jeopardize the safety, health

adequately provide. If a child cannot be safe in our program without one-on-one staffing, or
their care interferes with our ability to care for other children, we regretfully will not be able to
provide care for that child. If you have questions regarding specifics on your child, please reach out prior to registering or paying the $50 fee and we will do our best to help you.
