Bookings

  • You should place your booking by completing a booking form for the dates that you require. Forms are available at the Children’s Centre.
  • We will only accept a booking form if it has been signed by the person who has legal parental responsibility for the child named on the form.
  • We accept bookings monthly in advance. A timetable of the booking dates is available at the setting.
  • We recommend that you place bookings for longer periods than one month in order to reserve your childcare place. If you have booked for a longer period, we will invoice you each month within the first 10 days of the preceding month (see timetable).
  • We will not hold a place open for your child from one period to the next if we have not received a signed booking form showing the relevant dates for each period and the correct payment for each period.
  • Please note that bookings are only secured by payment and we operate a first come first served allocation process.

Fees Paid by Parents

  • For new customers, payment must be made in advance on the same day as the booking is made. We may request that your first payment covers up to 42 days, depending on the date of your child’s first session. Settling-in sessions, if required, will be arranged for your child AFTER your payment has been received. If you decide not to take up your place prior to your child’s start date, if it falls outside of the 28days notice we will not refund your payment.
  • Thereafter, each subsequent payment must cover at least the next 28 to 31 days, depending on the month. We will only be able to allocate childcare places and accept repeat bookings if we have received the correct fee at the correct time.
  • Wemust receive your bookings and payment no later than the dates shown on the timetable provided by yourChildren’s Centre. If you have not received this timetable, please speak to your Early Years Manager or Deputy Early Years Manager.
  • If you have booked for a longer period than one month, an invoice will be ready for you to collect within the first 10 days of the preceding month to give you time to make your payment.
  • Late payment will lead to your bookings being suspended until full payment has been received for the period due. There will be a charge of £30 to reinstate your bookings if they have been suspended due to non-payment of fees. Persistent late payment will lead to your bookings being cancelled permanently. We will not reinstate bookings that have been cancelled permanently.
  • Please note, we have waiting lists at all our childcare settings. If you do not keep your bookings and payments up to date, you run the risk that your place will not be available when you need it.
  • Cancellations can only be refunded if 28 calendar days notice is given, in writing on a changes to bookings form (available in reception). If you notify us with less than 28 days notice, your child is absent or sick you will still be charged the full amount for the sessions you have booked.

Charges for Late Collection of your Child

If you have become unavoidably detained, you should arrange for your emergency collector to collect your child and you should call the setting to inform staff of the situation. Persistent late collection will lead to a charge. For every 5 minutes you are late, we will charge you 50% of the average hourly rate applicable to your child. This must be paid before your child is able to resume attendance at the setting. Continuous late collection could result in the suspension of all bookings.

Children’s Centre Closures

We close all our settings for a number of days each year to allow for staff training, planning, preparation and building maintenance. We also close for the 8 annual public holidays that apply in the United Kingdom. Full details of our operating dates are available from all of our Children’s Centres. We do not charge for planned closures.

We do not accept responsibility for any loss, arising directly or indirectly, as a result of the Centres having to close for any reason outside our control. Fees will not be refunded for such closures. The Centres will only be closed after all reasonable endeavours have been made to provide a service. In these circumstances, it may be that a service will be offered on an alternative site.

Information sharing agreement (please tick)

Under the Data Protection Acts 1984 and 1998, I give permission for setting staff to share relevant information with and receive information from other agencies regarding my child. I understand that I will be informed when information is shared and that this information will remain confidential between the setting staff and the agencies involved and will only be used in the best interests of my child to support his / her progress and promote his / her welfare.

Safeguarding Statement

Safeguarding of children is defined as per Slough Children’s Centre Safeguarding Policy:

-protecting children from maltreatment

-preventing impairment of children’s health or development

-ensuring that children grow up in circumstances consistent with the provision of safe and effective care; and

-taking action to enable all children to have the best outcomes

Our view of effective safeguarding arrangements should be underpinned by two key principles:

-Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility: for services to be effective each professional and organisation should play their full part; and

-A child-centred approach: for services to be effective they should be based on a clear understanding of the needs and views of children.

Our Commitment

The highest priority for all Slough’s Children’s Centres is to keep children safe and protect their wellbeing. All staff and partner agencies working together at the Centres recognise and understand their duty to cooperate with each other and you as parents to safeguard and promote the welfare of children.
