Child Care Subsidy and the 3 Day Guarantee

Quality early education is more affordable than you might think.

Most Australian families are eligible for the Child Care Subsidy (CCS), which can reduce out-of-pocket child care costs by up to 90%.

From 2026, the 3 Day Guarantee will ensure eligiable families have access to at least three days of subsidised care each week, helping parents stay in work or study while children make friends, learn new skills and build confidence for life.
