How to Choose a Child Care Centre

Agency:

Department of Community Services

Description:

In choosing a centre for your child, you first need to consider the needs and interests of your child and family. This might include how accessible the service is to where you live or work.

Before choosing a centre or service, you need to visit and check that the policies and values are right for you and your child.

Every service must have a balanced program of indoor and outdoor activities and enough variety to stimulate your child's development. Services should have sufficient toys and equipment to provide choice for your child and enough variety to make each day interesting.
