    i am pretty sure there doesn't always have to be a Qualified in the room each day. Probably the workers currently in your DD's room have completed their Certificate 3 but not their Diploma yet. Maybe when you pick DD up you could have a word with the Director and discuss your concerns, i am sure he/she will be happy to discuss this with you.

    currently as long as there are enough diploma or equivalent under the roof line - they can be placed anywhere

    so the meeds to be a diploma qualified for every 15 children under the age of 3 and a qualified diploma for every 30 children over the age of 3.

    Bearing in mind the overall ratio for adult:child is 1:5 for under 3 years and 1:15 for overs

    so although they can get away with two ladies working with a cert 3 it would be in there best interest to have a qualified in every room.

    In saying that i have worked with diploma qualified i wouldn't leave a cat with lol and assistants that would be happy to run the room

    Talk with your director if this is bothering you
