Enrolling your Child at NCCDC

We're happy that you are enrolling with NCCDC. Here are the details on how to enroll.

Application:  When you are confident that you would like your child to enroll at NCCDC, fill out our enrollment form and pay a $50 non-refundable application fee. The fee reserves your space on the waiting list. If there is no waiting list, you may be offered a space for your child immediately.

Waiting list: Children on the waiting list are grouped by kindergarten class, as we try to maintain a balance of preschoolers leaving for kindergarten and toddlers moving into preschool. Priority is given to current children increasing enrollment, siblings of current children, and former NCCDC families. Offers are made to those on the waiting list based on date of application, and match of age and days required. The Director will stay in touch with you about available openings. Feel free to call to update your enrollment requirements or to check the progress of your application.

Offer of Space and Acceptance:  Once you are offered a space, you have three business days to accept or decline the space.  Upon accepting the space, a non-refundable deposit of the first month’s tuition is due within three business days. The $100 enrollment fee and pro-rated $100 annual fee will be charged upon enrollment.  The tuition deposit it applied to the first month's bill. The second month’s tuition will be pro-rated based on start date. 

Visits:  After you have selected a starting date for your child, we ask that you make two visits with your child. One should be for several hours of play.  The second visit includes lunch and nap time, as these can be difficult transition times for some children. In addition, you may make informal visits to NCCDC with your child to play. Please call ahead to determine which days are best for visits.
