Beyond the Manuals Parenting LLC

Support Group Registration

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Scope Of The Term “Client”. For the purposes of this Agreement, the term “Client” refers to the person(s) named on this form that is enrolling in a support group offered by Beyond the Manuals Parenting LLC, the “Company”. 

Support groups, workshops and/or events must be scheduled and paid for in full no later than 24 hours before the group or event. 

Payment For Services. Company services are private pay only. The Company does not bill any third party payers. It is Client’s responsibility to seek and ensure Client will be reimbursed for services, if applicable. The Company requires payment in full no later than 24 hours prior to commencement of a group or event. 

All payment for groups or events shall be made via Venmo. By submitting payment via Venmo, you secure your seat in the group, workshop or event. Payment is for you only (your newborn baby may attend with you for new mom support groups).

Cancellation Policy. Client must notify the Company of a cancellation at least fourteen (14) days prior to the scheduled group start date to receive a refund for that group. If the Client fails to provide 14 days’ notice prior to cancellation, Client shall pay the Company for participation in that group, since this spot was specifically reserved and held for the Client. No refund will be provided for a cancellation made less than 14 days in advance, or in case of a no-show. If a cancellation is made less than 14 days in advance, the payment may be used as a credit towards a future support group offered by the Company. The Client shall not dispute the charges billed pursuant to the mutually agreed upon schedule. 

Inclement Weather or Instructor Illness. The Company will contact all parties registered for a support group, workshop or event, if the support group, workshop or event has been canceled due to inclement weather or instructor illness. In the event of a canceled session, the Company will offer another date for the same missed session. 

Additional Policies and Information. The Company is not responsible for any parking fees incurred during a support group, workshop or event. Information provided in all classes, events or workshops conducted by the Company is offered for support and educational purposes only and should not be construed as medical advice. Such information is not intended to be complete, nor to replace the proper and thorough medical advice of your own physician or health care provider. Attendees of support groups, as well as events and workshops, disclaim any and all liability for any injury or other damages which may be directly associated with the communication or review of information contained in our support groups/events/workshops/programs.

If a dispute is not resolved within three (3) weeks after a demand for direct negotiation, the parties shall attempt to resolve the dispute through mediation. If the parties do not promptly agree on a mediator, either party may request the appointment of a qualified mediator. If the Company is forced to take legal action to enforce this Agreement or institute collection efforts for any amounts due under this Agreement, all fees and costs, including but not limited to, collection fees, attorney’s fees, travel expenses, court costs and any post-judgment collection fees, shall be the sole responsibility of the Client.
