What is the Child Care Subsidy (CCS)?

The Childcare Subsidy (CCS) is a financial assistance that reduces the cost of childcare for families. CCS is determined by the government based on a set of eligibility criteria. Depending on your circumstances, families can be eligible to receive up to 90% of their childcare fees covered by the subsidy. Applications can be made through Centrelink or you can call them directly on 136 150 for more information.

The Childcare Subsidy can greatly assist families with the cost of childcare. It is the responsibility of families to follow this up directly with the government to determine if they are eligible.

A Customer Reference Number (CRN) is obtained from Centrelink and is required in order for you to claim any Childcare Subsidy. Your CRN is required when completing our Enrolment Form.
