Childcare Subsidy (CCS) & Start Strong Program
The Child Care Subsidy (CCS) is the main way the Australian Government helps families with child care fees.
You need to meet some requirements to get Child Care Subsidy.
The subsidy is paid directly to your child care provider to reduce the fees you pay.
You may be eligible if you or your partner meet all of the following:
-
care for your child at least 2 nights per fortnight, or have 14% care
-
are liable for fees for care provided at an approved child care service
-
meet the residence rules.
Your child must also meet both of these:
-
not be attending secondary school unless an exemption applies
The Start Strong 2023 program for long day care provides funding to deliver affordable quality preschool education to children aged 4 and above who are enrolled in eligible long day care services in NSW.
To be eligible for funding under Start Strong, a child will need to be:
-
at least 4 years old on, or before, 31 July 2023
-
attending an eligible early childhood education program
-
listed on CCSS
-
not yet in compulsory schooling
-
Children who are 6 years old will be eligible for funding.
-
Citizenship and residency status are not taken into consideration for eligibility of children for funding under Start Strong for Long Day Care.
