09 FebHigher Child Care Subsidy is coming soon

Posted on 09 Feb 2022

From 7 March 2022, families with more than one child aged 5 or under in care will get a higher subsidy for their second child and younger children.

Families may be eligible if they:

  • earn less than $354,305
  • have more than one child aged 5 or under in child care.

Child care providers don’t need to do anything to help families get the higher rate. But you can help families understand what’s changing.
