How to Enroll
We've designed our enrollment process to be clear, welcoming, and stress-free. From your first visit to your child's first day, we're with you every step of the way.
Your Path to Day One
No surprises, no confusion, just a clear path from first hello to first day. Here's exactly what enrollment looks like at Precious Cargo.
Schedule & Take Your Tour
Every enrollment starts with a free tour. Come meet our teachers, see the classrooms, and get a feel for the environment. This is your chance to ask every question on your mind, big or small. We want you to feel completely confident before taking the next step.
✦ Tours are free, relaxed, and zero pressure.
Choose Your Program & Start Date
After your tour, we'll talk through which program is the right fit for your child's age and needs, Infant & Toddler, Twos, Preschool, Pre-K, or School-Age. We'll check availability at your preferred location and confirm a start date that works for your family.
✦ We'll help you find the right fit — no guesswork.
Complete Enrollment Paperwork
Once you're ready to move forward, we'll provide your enrollment packet. This includes your enrollment agreement, emergency contact forms, health and immunization records, authorization forms, and any program-specific documents. We'll walk you through each form so nothing feels overwhelming.
- Enrollment agreement & tuition schedule
- Emergency contacts & authorized pick-up list
- Health history & immunization records
- Medication authorization (if applicable)
- Photo & media release
- Financial aid paperwork (if applicable)
Meet Your Child's Teacher
Before the first day, we'll introduce you to your child's primary teacher. You'll share details about your child's routine, preferences, comfort items, and anything else that helps us hit the ground running. This connection makes a huge difference for both kids and parents.
✦ We believe a strong teacher-family relationship starts before day one.
First Day Transition Plan
We work with every family on a transition plan tailored to your child. Some kids walk right in and never look back, others need a few days of shorter visits to build comfort. We follow your child's lead and keep you updated throughout the day, especially in those first weeks.
✦ You'll never be left wondering how your child is doing.
First Day Ready Checklist
Before your child's first day, here's everything we'll make sure is in place together:
- Labeled belongings (backpack, water bottle, change of clothes)
- Any comfort items your child needs (stuffed animal, blanket)
- Completed paperwork on file
- Emergency contacts confirmed
- Drop-off and pick-up routine established
- Your child knows what to expect, we'll help with that!
