Locate a Childcare Centre

A strong partnership between parents and the childcare centre is important as it positively impacts our children's development during their years in a childcare centre.

This guide serves as a practical resource on childcare subsidy and operational and administrative matters including safety, health and hygiene, illnesses and refund of deposits. There is also information on the relevant agencies and authorities you may approach for advice or assistance on specific matters related to childcare.
