18.01.2022 Please make sure you sign your child in and out each day. Did you know that Goodstart is required to report children’s actual attendance times to the Australian Government? It’s important that you are signing your child in and out of care via the Kiosk each and every time they attend the service. Once we have submitted these attendances and absences your MyGov account will be updated and reflect this information. If the record of your child's attendance is not complete (wit...h a sign in and out via the Kiosk) when we submit to the government, your childcare subidy entitlement will not be confirmed which may result in the childcare subsidy not being paid to us correctly, or being removed from your account which could then leave you with additional out of pocket costs. If you have forgotten your PIN or forgotten how to sign in and out, please let us know - it is an easy fix! See more
