      I am a preschool program with two class options. I pre-enroll children a year in advance now for students that will be exiting for Kindergarten. They all have tentative start dates (I tell them between mid-June to mid-August) and the families that pre-enroll agree to take the spot once it is officially available. They provide the standard enrollment fee (final two weeks tuition) and the enrollment form. If they opt not to enroll afterall, the enrollment fee is nonredunable and I simply move on to another family interested.

        I think it's hard to start more than one family at once, so you might want to just take the 9 mth old but keep interviewing. Is the 9 mth old a decent nap per? Picks up own food when needed? Likes toys? Diapers not too bad? Some babies are pretty easy.

        Also if parents have good flexibility/back up care for illness, that can make them an easier family too.

          Both parents fell through. Should've had them put $ upfront....
