Daycare invoice FAQ

How should a daycare invoice parents?

Bill tuition in advance for the upcoming week or month, with the child's name and the period covered clearly stated. Autopay keeps recurring tuition on time.

How do I handle late pickup fees?

State the late-pickup rate (e.g. per 15 minutes) on the invoice and add it as a line item when it occurs, so the charge is documented and expected.

Should registration fees be separate?

Yes — a one-time registration or enrollment fee belongs on its own line, separate from recurring tuition, so parents can see what each charge is for.

Is childcare subject to sales tax?

Licensed childcare is exempt in most states. Some incidental supply or activity fees may be treated differently, so check your state's rule.
