About Us

WWEYLC is a family owned business located at Turvey Park, Glenfield Park & Boorooma that provides a safe, nurturing and educational environment, which reflects the children’s diversity, strengths, needs and interests. We are licensed under the Education and Care Services National Regulations. 

Rooms at WWEYLC are welcoming, light and spacious and are furnished and equipped with a focus on natural materials. Toys and learning materials encourage exploration, discovery and interaction. Outdoor spaces continue this theme, with WWEYLC keen to foster an appreciation of the natural environment with an emphasis on sustainability. A vegetable garden, worm farm and recycling allow the children to develop environmental awareness, and provide a base for their ongoing education. 

Meals are created by the WWEYLC cook in the kitchen on the premises, menus are planned and updated according to the latest healthy food guidelines. The emphasis of our menu is on whole foods, plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables, while we encourage and promote a diet low in sugar, salt and saturated fats. Our services cater for all dietary requirements.

WWEYLC offers an educational program based on the Early Years Learning Framework in a Long Day Care Setting. Educators develop a program based upon their sound knowledge of each child, by identifying their strengths and interests, choosing appropriate teaching strategies and providing individualised learning environments. We value our relationships with our families and community therefore university trained Early Childhood Teachers and Educators will work closely in partnership with you throughout the year in guiding educational learning outcomes for your child's fundamental years.

FAQs

What is Child Care Subsidy?

Child Care Subsidy is a payment from the Australian Government that helps you with the cost of your childcare.

Who can get Child Care Subsidy?

You can get Child Care Subsidy if you are a parent, foster parent or grandparent with a child in your care who is attending childcare services approved by, or registered with the Government. 

You can get Child Care Subsidy if:

  • you have a child in your care who meets the immunisation requirements [1] (or have an exemption)
  • you or your partner (if you have one) meet residency requirement [2] (or have an exemption)
  • your child attends approved [3] or registered care [4] and you have the ability to pay for the cost of your child care

How much child Care Subsidy can I get?

The amount you get depends on your circumstances:

  • the type of care you use (approved or registered)
  • your income
  • the amount of care you use

How do places get filled?

When filling vacant places, we fill our places according to the following priorities:
Priority 1: a child at risk of serious abuse or neglect.
Priority 2: a child of a single parent who satisfies, or of parents who both satisfy the work, training, study test.
Priority 3: any other child.
Within these main Priority categories, priority should also be given to children in:

  • Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander families
  • Families which include a disabled person
  • Families on lower incomes
  • Families from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds
  • Socially isolated families
  • Single parent families

WWEYLC also has internal priority of access principles that reflect priority for five days per week care, children of people working at WWEYLC; siblings of children already in care and children in part-week care who are moving to full-time care.

What if my child is absent? Do I still pay? Do I need to notify you?

Absent days are still charged at the same rate as regular care days and you will still receive your Child Care Subsidy entitlement for up to 42 absences per financial year. This includes public holidays throughout the year.
