Childcare is everyone’s responsibility. This is the message that we want to share.
About two months ago a group of parents, childcare professionals, employers and union representatives attended a meeting convened by Senator Kate Lundy.
This meeting decided to embark upon a campaign to raise awareness about the benefits of childcare to the community as a whole.
As a result, a campaign committee was formed and this group, who have met three times, decided that an online parents’ network would be a great way to share information with parents who wanted to be active in this campaign.
