Family day care service is sponsored

Coastwide Child and Family Services has begun sponsoring a day care service in Woy Woy.

It is a not-for-profit community-based organisation which sponsors Gosford Family Day Care, Gosford Supported Playgroups, My Time Playgroups and now Peninsula Family Day Care.

In the Peninsula area, there are currently 20 family day care educators who provide care for over 250 families in the local area.

"Our service would appreciate the opportunity to further promote family day care in the Peninsula and surrounding suburbs areas," said Coastwide senior coordinator Ms Vicki Fowler.

"At present we have many families waiting for care and are also hoping to recruit more prospective educators in the local area," she said.
