Step 1: Application
Please fill out the required information from the above hyperlink and most importantly your preferred weekly schedule and any additional information that would be helpful for us to know (i.e how flexible you are schedule-wise, extra support needs etc). Families are also invited to send us an email with any additional information or any questions they may have to info@extrasteps.ca
Step 2: Registration
Our staff will send you an email about our current availability once we have a spot open up. Please reply within 48hours to secure the spot.
Once we send you a confirmation email about your secured spots, we need:
- A non-refundable registration fee of $65, payable by e-transfer/cheque/cash
- A deposit equivalent to one month’s fees (which will cover fees for June of your child’s school year), payable by e-transfer/cheque/cash
- A completed Registration Form Package from our online platform Lillio
- A copy of your child’s birth certificate
*Any cheques returned from your financial institution will incur an NSF fee of $50.
*If you have trouble accessing Lillio, you can find the forms here.
Answers to common questions?
- Families are welcome to apply to the preschool at any time of the year. We will respond if/when we have availability for your child. You’re also welcome to send us an email at info@extrsteps.ca if you are hoping to start mid year.
- Priority is always given in the following order; to currently enrolled families, to past registered families and then new families in order that they are filed and dated.
- As our programs have many options register in, from 1 to 5 days a week, we cannot accurately tell you when a space will be available. The best time to find out roughly where your child is in the application process is about a month prior to when you’d like to register.
- Children usually get in our program within a year of applying or the start of the next school year, if they are the correct age. Flexibility in requested days/class times is a major contributing factor during the enrolment process.
- Families are invited for a tour if they have applied, are of age to begin and we have a space upcoming for them. All other families are welcome to come to our open house, held in February/March each year. We cannot have tours for every family individually if they are not starting immediately as they can be disruptive to the classroom. At registration time, if you are invited to register and have not yet visited, you will be invited for a tour at that time.
Thank you for reading and understanding these points. Please apply as early as possible to make your chances of getting in that much better. We look forward to working with you as a team with your child and family.
