Why Trust YMCA Family Day Care Services
YMCA provides families with trusted family day care services in Brisbane and the Gold Coast by focusing on:
In-depth selection process
All educators registered with the YMCA Family Day Care Services Scheme must go through an extensive recruitment process to ensure they meet all requirements of the Child Care Legislation, National Quality Framework and YMCA Policy.
Qualifications and professional requirements
Our dynamic team of educators need to have, or be completing, a Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care. They must also possess a range of other qualifications to prove they can competently maintain a safe and stimulating home-based child care environment.
Continued investment in people
Educators are the heart of family day care services. All YMCA approved educators will have access to regular training courses and a wide variety of resources to create the best child care environment at home. YMCA also carries out regular visits to provide timely support.
Children first
Our YMCA coordinators work closely with families and educators to make sure your children have the best experience and learning opportunities. Families may request a coordinator provide an extra visit to an educator to assist on any matters.
Family Day Care Costs
YMCA is proud to offer child care at an affordable price.
Each family day care educator charges their own rate, depending on what’s included in their care.
All fees are regulated in accordance with YMCA guidelines to keep services affordable. We are happy to assist in partnering you with a family day care specialist that matches your individual needs and will help your children thrive.
