Parents can also make childcare enquiries through the Child Care Hotline. The Australian Government Child Care Access Hotline is a free telephone service to help you find a child care service that meets your needs.

You can access this service via Freecall 1800 670 305 between 8am and 6pm nationally Monday to Friday (charges apply on calls from public pay phones or mobile phones).

There is also the MyChild Website. On this website you will find information on different types of childcare and how to get assistance with the cost of childcare. You can also search a database to find childcare centres in your local area.

Colac Otway Shire provides Family Day Care and Occasional Care as childcare options.

Council is fully committed to ensuring the safety of children and is a Child Safe organisation.
