The National Childcare Fee Defau

Our Purpose is to Eliminate Bad Debt Fees Owed to Childcare Providers
This site is dedicated to reporting parents who have withdrawn their child(ren) from a daycare owing fees to either a licensed, registered, listed or privately owned child care operation. We are not a collection agency, however, listing parents on this site will provide childcare operations with critical financial information before they accept children into their operation.

Childcare facilities, once registered on this site, will have pre-enrollment information on parents that have a bad debt relating to their childcare payments. This will allow the facilities to make critical financial judgment as to accepting those parents who have defaulted in their childcare fees to another childcare operation.

Many times, especially for registered, listed, or privately owned home childcare facilities, parents remove their children without notice, thereby leaving unpaid fees. Subsequently, these parents will go to another childcare facility and register their child(ren). By reporting this delinquency on this site, childcare facilities now ensure that the parent's they accept will be financially responsible.

Facts

According to a recent report by the National Association of Child Care Resource and Referral Agencies (NACCRRA), 63 percent of the nation's children under five years of age are in some type of childcare arrangement every week. Alone with these statistics, the bad debt ratios listed below is alarming:

Over 2.6 million dollars in bad debt childcare fees are reported by child care facilities each year.
75% of these fees are never recaptured by parents who default on their payments.
Bad debt childcare fees contribute to over 59% of childcare facilities operating at a loss because of those uncollected fees.
Childcare providers have no way of identifying these parents who owe other childcare operations.
An alarming number of parents do not honor their childcare contract. If they knew this service was available, it would drastically reduce the number of default fees.
Because of costly court fees and inconvenience of time, many childcare operations have no other choice but to write the loss off.
