Whitsunday Shire Family Day Care has been proudly supporting families with high-quality childcare since 1984. We provide home-based early learning across the Whitsunday region, with Educators located in Proserpine, Dingo Beach, Strathdickie, Cannonvale and Woodwark and we are excited to now be extending our service to support families in Nome, Ayr and Pinnacle.

Our unique Family Day Care model offers high-quality early learning in the nurturing environment of an Educator’s own home. Educators are able to tailor care to each child’s individual needs, interests and development, giving families confidence and peace of mind.

We are proud to be an ‘Exceeding’ rated service under the National Quality Framework, a standard we have consistently maintained since its introduction in 2012. This reflects our ongoing commitment to providing safe, supportive and enriching environments where children can thrive.

Family Day Care’s mixed-age setting encourages strong, genuine relationships and creates a natural, home-like environment where children feel secure and valued. These meaningful connections support children to develop confidence, independence and a strong sense of identity, while fostering a true sense of belonging, being and becoming.

We warmly welcome you to our service and invite you to explore our website or contact our friendly Coordination Unit team on 4945 2422 to learn more about how we can support you.
