Cares R Us

Finding childcare can sometimes feel like trying to find your child’s missing shoe when you’re already late. 👟😅

You know it exists.
You just can’t find it when you need it.

Family Day Care gives local families another option.

It’s care in a home environment, with smaller groups, familiar routines and more flexible arrangements for babies and young children.

Cares R Us is supporting Family Day Care locally and helping create more childcare options for Kangaroo Valley families. 💙💛

Small groups. Big difference.

There’s something special about the little everyday moments.

Family Day Care is built around the little moments that mean so much.

A walk outside, a shared laugh, a story on the mat, a child proudly showing what they made, or a quiet moment where they feel safe, settled and cared for.

These experiences shape the lives of children in our care.

It gives them the chance to learn, play and grow in a warm home-based environment, while giving educators the opportunity to build real connections with the children in their care.

Educator enquiries are welcome.

Family day care that fits real life.

The Kangaroo Valley Project supports local families with more flexible early childhood education and care options.

Family day care can offer a smaller, home-based setting where children are cared for in a nurturing environment, with more flexibility for families who need care that works around real schedules.

We are now speaking with families, educators and community members across Kangaroo Valley to help shape the next steps.
