We're Delivering on Cheaper Child Care

Around 1.2 million families across the country and 9,300 families can now benefit from our Cheaper Child Care changes - delivering real cost-of-living relief to families. 

This is good for children, good for the economy, good for families, and good for Australia.

For a family earning $120,000 with one child in care – their child care costs will be about $1,700 a year less than they otherwise would be.

For families on a combined income of $80,000 or less, the Child Care Subsidy rate will lift to 90 per cent.

Families can calculate their Child Care Subsidy by visiting www.childcaresubsidy.gov.au.
