Occasional Care
Maroondah Occasional Care is a flexible, high quality, Council run child care service. The service provides a range of care options from 6 weeks (following the first immunisation) to 5 years old, offering families the opportunity to attend work, appointments or as socialisation for their child in a mixed age setting.
We offer:
- permanent term bookings
- casual/emergency care bookings.
Our services are delivered by highly qualified staff and offers a program that is based on the Early Years Learning Framework and National Quality Standards to ensure that it is stimulating, developmentally appropriate and designed to respond to your child’s individual interests and needs. Our program also highlights the value of nature play and the importance of creating a sustainable environment.
Families provide food (and nappies) for their child which enables choice and allows us to offer affordable care.
