Child Care Subsidy (CCS)

The Child Care Subsidy (CCS) is a government initiative that helps eligible families with the cost of child care, making early learning more accessible. The amount you receive depends on factors such as your family’s income, activity level, and the type of care your child attends. Kids’ Early Learning is an approved CCS provider. However, families must apply for CCS through Services Australia and confirm their eligibility before the subsidy can be applied. For more information, please visit Services Australia.

Start Strong Subsidy

The Start Strong program provides extra fee relief for families with children aged 3 and 4 enrolled in our long day care and preschool programs. This subsidy is designed to make early childhood education more affordable. At Kids’ Early Learning, we apply the Start Strong subsidy directly to eligible enrolments - reducing your out-of-pocket costs in addition to any Child Care Subsidy (CCS) you may receive. Learn more about the Start Strong grant.

2026/27 fees estimate

Fees vary depending on the service, the number of hours your child attends, and your family's eligibility for government subsidies such as the Child Care Subsidy (CCS) and Start Strong. As these factors differ for every family, we can provide an estimate to help you understand how these subsidies may reduce your out-of-pocket costs.

Infants (6 weeks - 2 years)

Our infant learning environments provide a calm, nurturing space where babies feel safe, secure and valued. Working closely with families, we support each child's individual routines and developmental needs through personalised care, secure relationships and sensory-rich experiences that lay the foundation for lifelong learning.

Toddlers (2 - 3 years)

As children grow in confidence and independence, our toddler program encourages curiosity, creativity and exploration through play. Hands-on learning experiences support communication, problem-solving, friendships and resilience, helping children develop confidence in their growing abilities.

Preschool (3 - 6 years)

Our preschool program prepares children for a successful transition to school through purposeful, play-based learning. Guided by qualified Early Childhood Teachers and experienced educators, children build confidence, independence, early literacy and numeracy skills while exploring projects inspired by their interests, community and the world around them.
