About the hourly rate cap: The government calculates CCS based on an hourly rate cap of $14.63/hr (equivalent to $146.30 for a 10-hour day). If your centre's daily fee is higher than the cap, the subsidy is only calculated on $146.30 — not the full fee.
About the 5% withholding: The government withholds 5% of your CCS entitlement as a buffer against overpayments. This is reconciled at tax time and may be returned to you.
⚠️ This is an estimate only. Actual CCS entitlements depend on your activity test, immunisation status, and other factors assessed by Services Australia. For accurate information, visit Services Australia

Parent FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to feel confident before getting started.

What is included in the daily fee at Strathfield Broughton Road Montessori Academy? +

Our daily fee is designed to make busy family life easier. It includes your child's Montessori education program, nutritious meals and snacks, nappies and wipes, and other essential daily care items, so you can feel confident that your child has what they need throughout the day.

Your child is part of a thoughtfully prepared Montessori environment where every part of the day is designed to support independence, concentration, confidence, and development.

How is Montessori different to play-based childcare? +

Montessori is a structured, hands-on approach to early learning where children learn through purposeful activity, repetition, and real understanding. Using scientifically designed materials in carefully prepared environments, children choose their own work, follow their own interests, and build independence, concentration, coordination, and academic foundations at their own pace.

The result is children who become capable, confident learners through meaningful experiences in practical life, language, mathematics, sensorial learning, culture, and social development.

Our focus isn't on entertaining children. It's on activating their natural desire to learn.

Can I book a tour before joining the waitlist or enrolling? +

Absolutely. We encourage every family to visit the centre before making a decision.

A tour is one of the best ways to understand the difference Montessori can make. It gives you the opportunity to explore our classrooms, meet our team, see how children learn in a calm and engaging environment, and ask the questions that matter most to your family. If your child is coming on the tour too, we warmly encourage it as it helps you picture their experience more clearly.

Does Strathfield Broughton Road Montessori Academy help prepare children for school? +

Yes. School readiness starts from infancy and is built every day through the skills children develop in the Montessori environment.

At Strathfield Broughton Road Montessori Academy, children build the foundations for school and life through hands-on learning that supports early literacy, numeracy, concentration, independence, social skills, confidence, and responsibility. Rather than being treated as a short-term preschool add-on, school readiness is embedded throughout your child's entire learning journey.

Can I join the waitlist before my baby is born? +

Yes. Many families begin their childcare search while they are still expecting, especially in high-demand communities like Strathfield Broughton Road and across north Canberra.

Joining the waitlist early can help you plan ahead and gives you the best chance of securing your preferred start date and care pattern. Our Family Care Team will guide you through every step, from what we need now to what can be updated once your baby arrives.

How do you help babies and new children settle into care? +

We know that starting childcare is a big transition for both children and parents. Our approach is warm, responsive, and individual to each child.

For infants and younger children especially, we work closely with families to understand home routines, comfort needs, sleep patterns, feeding preferences, and temperament. Our goal is to build trust first, because children thrive when they feel safe, known, and secure.

How will I know what my child is doing each day? +

Strong communication with families is at the heart of the Strathfield Broughton Road Montessori Academy experience.

From morning and afternoon handover to daily updates via our parent app, monthly learning observations, and developmental milestone reports, we make sure you are always close to your child's world.

What should I look for when comparing childcare centres in Strathfield Broughton Road? +

When comparing childcare centres in Strathfield Broughton Road, look beyond surface features and ask what your child will truly gain from the experience.

Consider what is included in the daily fee, how the program prepares children for school, how educators support each child's individual development, and whether the environment feels calm, safe, and purposeful.

At Strathfield Broughton Road Montessori Academy, families value our authentic Montessori classrooms, experienced team, and recently renovated rooftop outdoor play space that gives children meaningful opportunities to move, explore, discover, and build confidence in the heart of Strathfield Broughton Road Town Centre.
