Harrisdale Early School Fees

Child Care Subsidy (CCS) is calculated using:
- Your combined family income
- The number of children under five that you have in childcare
- Your level of activity; if you're studying and volunteering, this may work in your favour towards your childcare subsidy
- The childcare provider's hourly rate.

| 0-3 Years | Over 3 Years |

Changes to the Child Care Subsidy
The 3 Day Guarantee. What does it mean for your family enrolling in 2026?From 5 January 2026, the Australian Government is updating the Child Care Subsidy (CCS) to guarantee at least 3 days of subsidised early childhood education and care per week. This means that all CCS-eligible families will receive at least 72 hours per fortnight (3 days/week) of subsidised childcare regardless of their work, study, or volunteering status. No CCS activity test is required.
Since Nido Early School is a government approved childcare provider, if you are eligible for CCS you will be entitled to the new 3 Day Child Care Subsidy Guarantee on your fees.
