    I agree you should call the centre for a quote and also the FAO to see how much assistance you will qualify for. My DD goes to an ABC and we also pay over $60 per day which includes all food and nappies for the day. I can only dream of paying $26 a day!

    The daycare Nina goes to (it's not ABC though) is $59 a day including food and nappies. I pay $30 a day.
    So it certainly sounds it could be correct. It's all based on your income though. You'll need to find out the full rate of the daycare then contact Centrelink and get an estimate from them as well.
