As a non-profit organization, fees help to cover staff salaries and operational expenses of The Preschool Centre. Any surplus income is re-invested in the programming and facilities.
All fees must be paid in full by month end. A late payment charge of 2% per month will be charged on all late payments. Please contact your Director if you require special payment arrangements. Alternate weekly/biweekly payment arrangements can be made if required. If payment or arrangements are not made after 30 days parents will be notified that the child must be withdrawn by month end and all outstanding fees will be due immediately.
Payment methods include cash, cheque, pre-authorized debits, e-transfers and debit (credit card payments can be made through a third party called Plastiq). Receipts are issued when payment is made. Year-end receipts are available upon request for a $25.00 fee. We encourage you to sign up for pre-authorized debit as to avoid late payment charges.
Fees are subject to change upon approval by the Board of Directors with two (2) months’ notice.

How do we compare to other childcare facilities?
The PSC is a designated Early Learning and Childcare facility through the Government of New Brunswick. As per GNB, “Parents with preschool-aged children, enrolled in a designated facility, will pay a standard childcare fee. No applications, eligibility criteria, or income testing are required by parents.” All parents attending a designated facility will receive the low daily fee of $21 (for infants and toddlers under 2 years of age) and $18 for 2, 3, 4 and 5 year olds (not yet in school).
The PSC also offers a daily lunch for an additional $50/month. This fee is added on to your tuition fees every month.
Withdrawal Policy
Parents are requested to give one full calendar months’ notice in writing when withdrawing their child. Without one full month’s notice, parents will be charged a full month’s fees.
