Waitlist

ILM maintains an ordered waitlist system, organized by the date we received initial email contact and by your requested start date. Families on our waitlist will be contacted in order of first request, providing the space available fits their requested care needs.


ILM utilizes a structured, ordered waitlist system to make the enrollment process smoother and more transparent. Families are placed on the waitlist based on two key factors: (1) the date we first received their initial inquiry via email; and (2) the start date they are requesting for their child’s care. This ensures that placements are offered fairly and in the order they were requested.


When a spot becomes available, we review the waitlist and reach out to families in the order of their initial contact. We will assess whether the available space matches the family’s requested care needs—such as the desired program, start date, and preferred schedule.


Please be aware that we cannot guarantee there will be available spaces by your preferred start date, but your waitlist position will be held until we are able to offer a space for your child. 

Tours and Meet & Greets

For facility walkthrough videos and detailed information on the programs currently available at each center, please visit our Our Locations page.

The safety and well-being of children in our care is always our top priority. Our managers are actively present on the floor to ensure a safe environment. Due to these safety measures, we are unable to offer in-person tours of open facilities before your child’s first day of attendance.

Throughout the year, families on our waitlist will have the opportunity to join our educators for guided tours during designated after-hours or Pro-D day events. These tours are designed to provide a thorough overview of our facilities in a safe and organized manner.​

​

Available Spaces

Available spaces at ILM facilities will be offered via email to students on our waitlist (in order of initial email contact). If no one on the waitlist is interested in an available spot, the space shall be offered on our Facebook page. Please direct interest in these spaces to our email inquiringlittleminds@gmail.com. We will not be processing enrollment offers over the phone.


If you have questions about current space availability and/or would like to be added to our waitlist(s), please send an email to our admin team at inquiringlittleminds@gmail.com or complete the following waitlist submission request:

Registration

Children can be registered for full-time, regularly scheduled part-time, and/or drop-in care. Our Little Tots and Cedar Sprouts locations accept part-time enrollment only. 

​

All registration forms must be fully completed before your child will be accepted into the program.

​

Registration Form

Children must have a valid birth certificate to be eligible for enrollment. Parents will be responsible for providing the program with their personal employment or school schedule in writing, as well as a start date for their child. 

 

The documents that must be on file to complete enrollment are:

  • Child Care Registration Form, pages 1-7, completed and signed

  • An up-to-date photo of your child

  • Immunization Record (if not detailed on the Child Care Registration Form)

 

Children in Infant/Toddler and 3-5 programs are also required to participate in a gradual entry period prior to attending full days, usually totaling 2 weeks time. Gradual entry may be extended if a child is struggling to adjust to longer days in the classroom. 

 

Once we've received all documents needed to complete enrollment, we will send you the invoice for a one-time $50 registration fee in addition to a deposit calculated as 50% of the Total Monthly Fees. Enrollment deposits may be refunded up to the end of business hours on the first day of attendance; deposits are non-refundable following the first day of attendance, but the deposit amount is applied as a credit on your account and will be paid toward your monthly fees.

​

Please note that we are unable to offer in-person tours of open facilities prior to your child's first day of attendance.

​

Please contact our Admin team via email at inquiringlittleminds@gmail.com if you have any questions about the registration process.
