Drop in care may be arranged in advance at the rate of $14/hr (rounded up to the half hour). Please send me an email confirming any arrangements made in person or over the phone, and in the margin of the sign-out sheet, write “PADI” as shorthand for “Pre-Approved Drop-In.” Your drop-in fees will not be reported to you, so please keep track of them yourself and pay monthly.
