Our Fees
Foundations Family Day Care has fees for care ranging from $11.80 to $19.55 for standard hours and from $11.80 to $39.10 for non-standard hours. This includes the Administration Levy (currently $2.75). These fees can be reduced by Child Care Subsidy. All care fees are charged fortnightly in advance and are legally required to be paid via Direct Debit, as per FFDC’s Child Care Subsidy approval conditions.
Our Educators are self-employed and work under contract to the service. They each have their own fee schedule. Please feel free to enquire about your preferred Educators' fees by calling 0421 599 416 during business hours.
