How Much Does Childcare Cost on the Central Coast?

The cost of child care in Budgewoi, Lisarow, Umina Beach, Wamberal, Wyong, and surrounding areas depends on factors such as your child’s age, the centre you choose, and your Child Care Subsidy (CCS) eligibility. At Milestones, we aim to make high-quality early education accessible and affordable for local families.
