Services
Staffed by experienced and qualified child care workers, the Redfern Occasional Child Care Centre provides occasional care to enable parents to shop, attend appointments or take a break from parenting.
Places
Redfern Occasional Child Care has a flexible license which caters for the care and education of up to 36 children per day. The centre has three different playrooms where children are age grouped with a maximum of 36 children per day.
The service gives priority to disadvantaged families in the City of Sydney area who are:
- identified as low income, for example entitled to a Health Care Card
- single parent families
- non working families
- Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders
- families at risk
- from non-English speaking backgrounds
- finding it difficult to access mainstream child care.
Bookings
Bookings for occasional child care can be made in advance. Regular bookings may also be available. If you book a place at the service and do not show up without cancelling in advance, even if your child is sick, you must pay for the session.
Operating Hours
The centre is open Monday to Friday from 9am to 4pm. The centre is closed on weekends, public holidays and for a short period over the Christmas/New Year break.
