Frequently asked questions (Faqs)

We know your time as a parent is limited, so we want to share answers (upfront!) to some of the major questions likely on your mind.

When are you open?

Mondays through Fridays, 7:30am-5:30pm.

We close for federal and state holidays, and in the event of inclement weather, Mansfield PALS is closed when Mansfield Public Schools are closed.

In addition, we take on-going professional development of our staff and upkeep of our facility seriously. As such, instead of closing for a week or two during the year, Mansfield PALS will be closed one day per quarter for “professional days.” Annual program calendars can be found in Mansfield PALS’ Parent Handbook.

Do you offer care for less than 5 days/week?

Right now, Mansfield PALS is offering full-time (5 days/week) and part-time slots (2 or 3 days/week) for our Preschool and Pre-K classrooms. We are only enrolling full-time slots for Infants and Toddlers.

What does it cost to send my kid to Mansfield PALS?

At Mansfield PALS, we work hard to keep prices affordable for families. Our tuition fees cover full-time or part-time care and all program materials. Any absences or holiday closures do not impact weekly payments.

Does Mansfield PALS accept vouchers?

Yes, Mansfield PALS participates in the Department of Early Education and Care’s (EEC) Child Care Financial Assistance (CCFA) program and accepts mobile voucher payments.

Does Mansfield PALS have cameras?

At Mansfield PALS, we take the safety and security of everyone in our space—especially kids—very seriously. We have video and audio recording cameras in all classrooms, entrances, hallways, and outdoor play areas. No cameras record bathroom or kitchen activity. Recordings are kept on a private, secure server for 30 days. To ensure the safety and confidentiality of children and staff, we do not provide access to the recordings to outside parties or permit live-streaming to families. As part of the enrollment process, parents/guardians must complete a recording consent form.
