Eurobodalla Council provides fee-for-service early learning and free programs for children.

We deliver fun and engaging learning programs in safe environments which are fully compliant with national laws and regulations. Our qualified educators are nurturing and committed to the development and safety of the children in their care.

We also take a leadership role in supporting the sector through advocacy and planning to strengthen community access to childcare.

In March 2022, we hosted a forum to address the major impacts on the early learning and care sector. We developed an Action Plan and are using it to advocate to effect a number of improvements.

Children's Services programs follow safe hygiene practices. These include:

• If children or staff have symptoms of illness, they should not attend the service until they are well.
• Families will be asked to collect unwell children from care as soon as possible in accordance with our policies, guidelines and procedures. We might request a health clearance before returning to group care.
• Staff and children regularly clean hands with hand sanitiser or soap and running water for 20 seconds.

Our Out Of School Hours and Family Day Care services are assessed and rated by the NSW Department of Education, and we are sent a summary of any compliance issues registered, and how we are rated against Australian Children's Education & Care Quality Authority's National Quality Framework.
