Fees & CCS Entitlements

Kiddies Learning Hub fees are charged on a fortnightly basis, with a flat day rate. Your out-of-pocket daily cost will vary depending on your Child Care Subsidy (CSS) entitlements.

Child Care Subsidy (CCS) is available to families who are Australian Residents/Citizens. To find out about eligibility, families must contact the Family Assistance Office. It is the family’s responsibility to provide the correct Customer Reference Number (CRN) to Kiddies Learning Hub. Any Child Care Subsidy is paid directly to the Kiddies Learning Hub and the parents are invoiced for the balance. This is known as the GAP fee.​
