Choosing Family Day Care
About FDC
A Family Day Care service is a network of experienced and registered educators who provided care for other people’s children in their own homes. Educators have been carefully selected supervised and operated under the Education and Care Services National Regulations, the Children (Education and Care Services National Law Application) Bill 2010. Educators and Coordination Units are also assessed and rated against the National Quality Standards to ensure quality and continuous improvement.
Children aged between the age of 6 weeks and 12 years are nurtured in a small group setting and through the educators’ individualized programming, are encouraged to further develop their skills and knowledge.
Family Day Care is:
- Flexible
- A small group setting in a family environment
- 1 consistent educator
- Can offer out of hours care/overnight care
- Can offer holiday care
- Can offer before and after school care
