The childcare services industry is essential for working parents and for the healthy socialisation of young children. However, the industry is also highly regulated to protect the children and families who use these services.

To ensure your childcare or family day care service succeeds, we partner with our clients to help them navigate the rapidly changing regulatory environment and capitalise on developing opportunities. 

If you run a childcare centre or are a family day care operator, we can assist you with all of your legal needs, including:

  • structuring your business;
  • drafting and reviewing contracts;
  • employment and workplace safety;
  • reviewing leases for childcare facilities; 
  • buying or selling childcare businesses; 
  • and more.
