* Please note, if you need something that does not fit into the above schedule, feel free to contact the director. Also please be aware that we are a preschool and would require a day care license in order to provide full-day sessions, which is why we aren't providing full-day at this time. However, we are meeting the NYS mandates for maximum number of allowed hours for a preschool.

*There is an Annual Registration Fee of $50 due upon enrollment. This fee will be used for your child's materials, e.g., snacks, curriculum materials, etc. 

*The registration fee is non-refundable except for children who are accepted into their school district's UPK program. Copy of acceptance letter must be provided to Director within one week of acceptance date in order to receive refund.

Discounts

We understand that times are tough for Long Islanders but we don't want our children to suffer because of it. Creative Kids strives to make high quality preschool education affordable for all families. We want our children to feel successful while learning especially in light of the rigorous standards set forth in education today. But we also want them to have FUN! They are children, after all! And playing to learn is what children do best! 

*We offer a 5% discount for all Tamarac Elementary School families and TJE Dance Force families. This discount applies to school faculty and staff as well.

*We offer a referral fee discount. If you refer a friend to our preschool and that friend enrolls, you will BOTH receive a 10% discount for the 1st month of enrollment.

*We also offer a 10% discount for sibling enrollment. (First child is full-price, 10% off for 2nd sibling enrolled at the same time. If you enroll more than 2 children at the same time, all children will receive 10% off monthly tuition.)

We look forward to supporting the community where we live, work and play!
