Tuition

How pricing works

We don't print tuition here, because it depends on the room and the schedule. Here is what sets it and how it is paid.

  • Tuition depends on your child's room and age and on the schedule you pick: a half day, three mornings in the twos room, or the school day. Our figures are on our enrollment page, and we go through them with you on a tour.

    • The room and your child's age

    • Half day, three mornings or school day

    • The days a week

  • Registration

    A registration fee covers the enrollment file and the year's atelier supplies. It is due when you apply, and the enrollment page says what it is.

  • Holding a place

    A place is held once we have your enrollment form and a deposit, and the deposit goes toward the first month's tuition. When a room is full, families join a waitlist, and we offer places in the order families joined.

    • Enrollment form and deposit hold a place

    • The waitlist is by room and schedule

  • Billing

    Tuition is billed monthly and paid by autopay through our parent portal. If another arrangement would help your family, tell us at the tour.

  • Help with tuition

    Ask us whether state child care assistance works with our tuition. We will tell you plainly what we can and cannot do, and we would rather you ask before you apply.

  • Siblings

    If a second child is joining Teasel, tell us when you apply. We handle it differently from a first child, and we explain how at the tour.

  • Withdrawing

    We ask for a month's notice before a child leaves, so that we can offer the place to a family on the waitlist. The enrollment agreement says what happens to a month in progress.

  • Other costs

    Outside tuition there are two costs: supplies for the atelier and the few outings the studio room takes. Each is named on the enrollment page with what it covers.

    • Atelier supplies for the year

    • Field trips for the studio room
