10.01.2022 Did you know? Series Week 2 Child Care options If you have young children, child care can be a complex issue. If you have limited options for child care, you may need some extra assistance.... In-home child care is a service provided by an approved carer in the child's home. This is sometimes available to families with no other child care options. Contact your local Family and Community Services (FaCS) office on 1300 653 227 to find out if you are eligible. Increased child care hours and/or special child care benefits If you already receive Child Care Benefit (CCB) and need to increase the number of hours of child care in any week, then ask your child care provider if you might be eligible for extra hours of CCB under the 'exceptional circumstances' provision. If your illness has caused financial hardship and you are having difficulties paying your portion of child care fees, you may also be eligible for up to 13 weeks of Special Child Care Benefit (SCCB) If your children are not in approved child care and you would like to access approved child care while you are receiving treatment, contact the Child Care Access Hotline on 1800 670 305 and they will provide you with details of approved child care services in your area For more information on the Child Care Benefit visit the Department of Human Services' Families website. Some local councils provide home help services, and may also be able to help with child care. You can contact them directly, or talk to your GP, oncology nurse or social worker to find out what services are available in your area.
