    BW I have always found FDC to be very flexible and accommodating, and our carers have always provided a nice balance between structured activities and free play. I'm confident my babies have been cuddled and patted to sleep whenever they have needed it. We have a back up carer so if the main carer can't do a day there's a plan B.

    You could ring the Childcare Access Hotline to find out what childcare is offered in your area (including contact point for which ever organisation administers FDC)

    bw.. the one ds goes to is off kissing point road, at ermington so close to ryde. it's called active kids. i can pm you the details. we got one close home cos anyone of us can pick/drop him off. and also helps if we change jobs, we dont have to look for another one.
    ages 1-2 are very important as they learn to socialise and learn things outside their world.
    we dont have much family here so i felt it was very important for ds to know other kids and not just us being his whole world. it will certainly builds his self confidence and social kids.. and LDC/FDC do a lot more as well, providing play/education ....
