Childcare Fees

Anyone else being charged full amount for daycare coz they have used their 42 absent days!? It’s insane paying the full daily amount!? You get punished for keeping your sick kids home how is anyone meant to survive with the cost of living!?

If you get a DR certificate I believe you will go back to cheaper fees :)

Check with your daycare centre but usually if you have used up the 42 absent days you can provide a medical certificate for absence due to illness and still receive a subsidy for those days. https://www.servicesaustralia.gov.au/child-care-subsidy-if-your-child-absent-from-child-care?context=41186

I work in childcare, if your child is home due to illness give the centre a medical certificate. You will not receive full fees. Always always always get a med certificate

What about being charged full fees for public holidays? Still need a dr certificate Its insane and the service isn’t even open!!
