Required Child Care Application and Explanation Of Fees

Enroll your child in Ballancrest Academy at Blakeney, located in Charlotte, North Carolina, by completing our child care application and paying the required registration fee. We offer pre-registration for our different age-focused classrooms. If a spot is not available, we put interested applicants on a waitlist until room becomes available. A yearly curriculum fee of $99 per family is due in September.

Pre-Registration

Families may pre-register for the infant room up to six months in advance by completing and submitting an application for enrollment, as well as paying the $125 registration fee. Pre-registration for all other rooms is three months in advance with the submission of a complete application and payment of the registration fee.

Waitlist

If a space in a room is unavailable, families may secure a spot on the waitlist by completing an application and paying the $25 waitlist fee. Children on the waitlist will be contacted if a space becomes available. The registration fee, minus the waitlist fee, is due at the time the space is secured.

Class Sizes

In order to provide personalized attention, we keep our class sizes small. Each classroom is staffed with a full-time Lead Teacher and at least one full-time assistant. All teachers are certified in First Aid and CPR. Teachers who work with children age 18 months and younger are ITS-SIDS trained. We maintain the lowest age-related ratios of teacher to number of children, which are as follows:

• Infants - 1:4
• Toddlers - 1:5

• Twos - 1:8
• Threes - 1:9

• Fours - 1:12
• Fives - 1:12
