A Guide to Family Day Care for First-time Parents

Family Day Care is childcare in a home-like environment

Family Day Care is a form of childcare that takes place in a family-like environment within the homes of registered and qualified Educators. This type of childcare offers a structured learning experience and a nurturing environment that feels like a second home for children.

Family Day Care has small group sizes

The small group sizes in Family Day Care ensure that each child receives individual attention from an Educator who understands their unique needs, interests, and developmental milestones. This fosters a sense of belonging and creates a supportive atmosphere for children’s growth and development.

Family Day Care provides structured learning experiences

Structured learning experiences are a key feature of Family Day Care. Educators support children’s early development through age-appropriate learning experiences that promote early literacy and numeracy skills, social interactions, and creative exploration. Play and interest-based activities are used to engage children in educational activities such as story and music time, art and craft, dramatic play, and active play.

Family Day Care is flexible

Family Day Care offers a flexible childcare option that is ideal for families with unique schedules, such as working parents, shift workers, or those only requiring part-time care.

Family Day Care is ideal for combined sibling care

Family Day Care is an ideal option for parents who want siblings to be cared for together.

Family Day Care is strictly regulated

Family Day Care is strictly regulated to ensure that Educators maintain a caring learning environment that adheres to health and safety guidelines. Educators must follow strict regulations to ensure that children receive high-quality care in a safe and nurturing environment.
