Family Day Care (FDC) is quality, affordable child care and education for small groups of 0-13 year olds, provided in the home of a qualified childhood educator.
With the need to work full time and non-standard hours on the rise, parents wanting their children to grow up in a home environment are looking at FDC as an alternative to centre-based and relative child care.
Offering flexible care hours and multicultural educators, FDC is ideal for busy parents like shift workers, on-call employees, single parents and parents with demanding jobs, and parents from diverse cultural backgrounds.

Information about becoming an FDC educator is available in the Family Day Care Educator Brochure (PDF, 2.65 MB) and application form.
