As families across Australia struggle with the rising cost of living, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has announced a game-changing commitment: a flat-fee childcare system. This could see Australian parents pay no more than $10 or $20 a day for childcare. This announcement is a huge deal for Australian families and children.
The cost of childcare has been a major barrier for parents, forcing impossible choices between working and staying home. Many primary carers, predominantly women, have had to put their careers on hold or leave the workforce entirely because childcare costs take up most, if not all, of their wages.
For children, especially those from disadvantaged backgrounds, the high cost has meant missing out on quality early learning experiences that are crucial for their development and future success.
But our work isn’t done yet!
When the Prime Minister hears directly from people like you, it shows him this issue matters to voters. By thanking him for his commitment and urging swift action, we can ensure childcare fee caps become a top priority for his government.
The more voices he hears, the more likely these changes will be implemented quickly. Let’s show the Prime Minister that Australians want affordable childcare now!
It only takes a moment to make a difference. Will you thank the Prime Minister today?
When enough of us speak up, the government will prioritise implementing these fee caps. This will provide much-needed relief for struggling families and ensure that more Australian children can access the life-changing benefits of quality early education.
Together, we can ensure that every child, no matter their background, has access to high-quality early learning and care.
