Child care in Melbourne

Hi,

when settling in a new country, working parents are mostly concerned about finding child care services for their children.

What can you share with us about the child care system in Melbourne ?

How much is daycare in Melbourne?

Is the staff qualified at these daycare centers?

What are the usual opening hours?

Do they provide other services at the daycare center?

Any daycare center in Melbourne you would like to recommend to other expats? What makes them special?

Thank you for participating! :)

I have been living in Melbourne my whole life but since I'm not a parent or anything myself I don't really know much about the cost of day care.
I think the hours range from about 8am till 6pm and the staff are all qualified.
I'm not sure about services or anything they offer but there are heaps and heaps of different centres to choose from! they are everywhere so it should be easy enough to find one near you :)

Thanks for your contribution oh.wow.tali!
