If the system has already closed, the personnel of the early childhood care and education unit can be directly informed. The work shifts of the personnel are consolidated one week before, i.e. the information of the times of the child’s participation is important. The program sends a remind concerning the booking two days prior to closing the system of declaring care times to those guardians who have submitted their email addresses.
It is possible to declare care times of several weeks. The program still reminds on a weekly basis of declaring care times, but this can be disregarded.
Also declare the child’s possible days off.
If care times have not been booked by the deadline, the personnel of the early childhood care and education unit books care times for the child for each day according to an average number of hours between 8 am and 4 pm. This number of hours is included in the declared number of hours.
If the booked level of monthly hours is exceeded, the average time of the child in early childhood care and education is checked over a period of three months. If the exceeding is continuous the early childhood care and education fee is elevated to the following fee grade.
