What Is Childcare Subsidy and How Does It Work?

The government Child Care Subsidy (CCS) aims to make early learning more affordable for eligible families. How much subsidy your family is entitled to will depend on how much ‘work related’ activity you and your partner undertake each fortnight.  Click on links below for more information.

Our centre is registered with Centrelink and eligible for Child Care Subsidy (CCS) so parents can benefit from funding support. You are able to apply for CCS by contacting your local Family Assistance Office (FAO), situated in Centrelink, or by phoning 136 150.  We recommend that you apply for CCS prior to commencing care at our centre.  This will ensure you receive your entitlement from the day you start.
