We understand that choosing the right style of child care for your child is an important decision.

A recent survey highlighted that sentiments towards family day care were overwhelmingly positive (Family Day Care member initiatives for 2018-2019).

Families choose Family Day Care because:

• They believe it is the best environment for their child
• They received small group care
• Less illness compared to centres
• Flexible to the needs of the parents.
• More personal one on one care
• Stronger relationships with one primary Educator
• Same person to greet the child and say goodbye each day
• Family friendly environment
• Better value for money
• Convenient location
• Increased socialisation opportunities
• More opportunities to participate in the community.

Family Day Care is perfectly placed to accommodate babies, toddlers and pre-schoolers. For a baby, they can have one primary caregiver who is able to form fabulous attachments and relationships as your baby grows and develops. As a parent it is reassuring to know someone cares about your baby as much as you do. These relationships are rich and rewarding.
