At One Step Up Childcare, our doors and our hearts are always open. We know how precious your child is, and we treat every child as if they were our own. From the very first hello to the proud moment of graduation, we are here to care for, nurture, and celebrate your child every step of the way.

Our centre is a place of warmth, belonging, and connection — where children feel safe to be themselves, free to explore, and supported to grow. We walk alongside families as trusted partners, working together to give every child the love, confidence, and foundation they need to flourish.

At One Step Up Childcare, your child is not just cared for they are cherished, supported, and truly part of our family.

One Family

We believe that families are the biggest influence in a child's life and play a crucial role in their development. The strong foundation built at home is essential in shaping who children are and how they learn. That's why we place a strong emphasis on creating meaningful partnerships with families. We value open communication and collaboration, working together to support each child's unique needs and aspirations. By respecting and incorporating the values, traditions, and insights families bring, we create a more enriching and consistent learning experience, ensuring children feel supported both at home and at our centre.

Indigenous Heritage

We acknowledge the original owners of our land, the Dharawal speaking people, along with all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in the community and their languages.

We believe as part of this community we have a responsibility to maintain a sense of belonging and promote secure attachments with our children and greater community.

We strive to foster a connection to the land, recognise and value our shared Aboriginal history, culture and to actively embrace and share the message of reconciliation.

How the CCS works

The CCS is paid directly to approved child care providers, which then pass on the benefit as a fee reduction to families. Families pay the remaining balance, known as the ‘gap fee.’ The amount of CCS a family receives depends on the following factors:

  • Combined family income: The subsidy percentage is determined by the family’s annual adjusted taxable income. For lower-income families, the subsidy can cover up to 90% of child care costs. As income increases, the subsidy percentage decreases on a sliding scale. There is an upper income limit, beyond which families may not receive any subsidy.
  • Activity test: The subsidy amount is also influenced by the parents’ level of activity, including work, study, training, or volunteering. Generally, the more hours parents engage in these activities, the more hours of subsidised child care they can access. There are four activity levels, which correspond to the maximum number of subsidised hours a child can receive: up to 24, 36, 72 or 100 hours per fortnight.
