Glen Eira City Council Carnegie Occasional Care 2024
Occasional care is short-term care for children aged between six months to five years to enable the primary carer an opportunity to ‘take a break’.
Children’s programs are developed by qualified early childhood educators. The programs include a range of experiences to access and enjoy that are age appropriate in a safe, secure and caring environment.
Occasional care is ideal for families looking for regular social contact or child care for their child.
