Enrollment

Our waitlist is open again! If you'd like to add your child you can use our form below or email their name, date of birth and your contact information (email and phone number) to :


contact@shine-childcare.org

It's also helpful to indicate if you're interested in our 2 or 3 day options or full time care.

We operate year-round and use rolling enrollment. We can accept a new child whenever a space opens.

Our waitlist is first-come, first-served, with the exception of a few priorities (e.g., sibling priority). Coming to an open house and getting on the waitlist early is highly encouraged.​ Waitlist times vary and times can be fairly unpredictable. However, once you have completed the waitlist application form, you will receive your number in line and get monthly updates on your status.

Once a spot opens up we will reach out to you through email and phone. In order to be fair and keep spots filled we will move to the next family on the list if we don't hear back within 5 business days. Families that are not responsive to emails or phone calls will be removed from the waitlist.

Our waitlist policy allows you to retain your spot on our waitlist once if we offer you a spot and decline. If we offer you a second spot and you turn it down, we will then move you to the bottom of our waitlist. After a third time, you will be removed from our list and we will not add you back.

We will do our best to accomodate your scheduling needs when we offer you a spot. Also, turning down multiple spots offered within a 30-day period will not count against you, as we realize that your situation will likely not have changed in that period. Please remember that open spots are offered on a first-come, first serve basis, so timely response is needed to reserve a spot.
