Drop-in or enrolled?

If you find yourself booking drop-in days often, enrolling may be simpler: your child gets a regular spot in their age group, and you can choose full-time (more than 6 hours and up to 10 hours a day) or part-time (up to 5 hours 59 minutes a day), and switch between them with the director's approval. Two weeks' notice is required to disenroll. Ask either desk which fits your schedule better.
