Council’s Family Day care ranked in Top 7% in the State

Council’s Family Day Care is ranked in the top 7% of Family Day Care in the State after officially being rated as ‘Exceeding the National Quality Standard’ (NQS) once again under the National Quality Framework.

The National Quality Standard (NQS) sets the national benchmark for the quality of children’s education and care services across Australia.

Reaching this high standard is not easy and assessment is made against seven key areas including health and safety, education programs, relationships with children, and leadership.

An overall rating of ‘Exceeding’ is given only to services that go above and beyond the requirements of the Standard.

Here is what the Assessment Officer said about the service:

“Your service is commended on its achievements in providing quality outcomes for children.

Careful planning, reflective practice and willingness to collaborate with families and other community organisations to enhance children's learning and wellbeing demonstrate the commitment to quality by educators at your service.

The service's effective governance and leadership team ensures all educators, children and families experience positive, supportive and respectful relationships”.

This significant achievement stands testament to the passion, professionalism and commitment of the team who continue to provide highly personalised, flexible, quality care for children aged 6 weeks to 12 years. Congratulations!
