Cost-Consciousness Care
At Kaleido*Kids, it’s important for us to be cost-conscious for families.
A note from Kaleido*Kids’ owner...
Over the past few years we’ve experienced significant rising costs to run the school — some of our vendors raised their costs more than 20%— and, once you multiply that across all expenses, it has started to add up (just like everyone else is experiencing). We also offer above average pay for our teachers and our benefits package is generous as well, because we know teachers deserve that.
So while we’ve had to raise our rates to keep up with rising costs, we’re still making a conscious effort to keep our rates lower than all of our competitors (we’re $200 - $450 less per month than the daycares in the surrounding area) and we also include diapers, wipes, diaper cream & sunscreen so you dont have to worry about those extra costs.
Each year we’ll reevaluate to ensure we’re doing everything we can to make childcare costs more manageable for parents (sorry suburbs, but we want our families to stay in the city!)
