Waterford West Childcare & Daycare

We offer a range of sessions which have varying fees.

On average families expect to pay a gap fee of between $15 – $50 per day for their child’s care.

*Please note, that the exact amount will depend on individual families’ % and hours in their CCS claim.

CCS is a subsidy payment made by the government to assist families to enrol their children into care – with the aim of providing opportunity for early learning for all children, and allowing families access to return to work.

CCS is claimed via Centrelink and is made by putting through a claim. This claim will return a % of fees to be subsidised, and a total amount of fortnightly hours that this subsidy can be applied to.

To learn more, explore eligibility, and apply for CCS for your child’s care please visit the Centrelink website.

After CCS has been applied you will be responsible for the payment of your child’s remaining gap fee. To ensure consistent payment and ease of transaction, Ancora Kids has a Direct Debit Agreement, where fees will be withdrawn from the parent’s chosen account or card on a weekly/fortnightly basis. It is the responsibility of all families to ensure that sufficient funds are available for the agreed transaction to take place (individual banks may hold penalty fees for rejected requests).

Additional payments for casual sessions may be paid on site at your child’s centre. All fees must be made 2 weeks in advance.

Child care fees are paid on a ‘bookings’ basis, where you pay for the allocated spot that your child is taking. If your child is booked into a regular session that falls on a public holiday, you will still be charged for this day.
