Enrollment
Tanaina's enrollment process includes an application, requires current physical, vaccination records, and 50% of your child's first month’s tuition in order to secure their space. We are currently full but accepting waitlist applications. When offered a spot you'll need to submit an enrollment application. The enrollment application will be delivered to you upon acceptance.
Waitlist
Thank you for your interest in Tanaina Child Development Center! We understand that finding high-quality child care can be a stressful journey. We invite you to schedule a tour of our program and ask questions to make sure you and your child will feel comfortable in our environment. If you feel Tanaina Child Development would be a good fit for your child you can enroll in our waitlist by filling out the application. Please note there is a $75 application fee due before the waitlist application can be submitted. To enroll your child on the waitlist please click the PayPal link below. After you submit payment click “return to merchant” and it will take you to the waitlist through MyProcare.
When your family is offered a space at Tanaina, you will have 48 business hours to accept or decline your space. You may defer your acceptance twice. A no-reply will result in deletion from the waitlist. If you accept your space, we will welcome you in for a meeting with the Executive Director to tour again and go over the Enrollment Application and Family Handbook. We want to be sure your placement here will be the best fit for your family and child's needs.
Parents are welcome to attend the first several days of care with their child as they ease into the transition process. This also provides parents the opportunity to become familiar with each child's environment, daily schedule, classmates, and teachers.
