parents are paying up to $50 a day more than the national average to send their kids to childcare.
They are followed by Armadale at a cost of $159.34 per day, Brighton East at $156.42 and Blackburn at $154.47. Balk said South Yarra being the most expensive was unsurprising, given its close proximity to the city, which would mean higher rent costs for the facility. “So if a centre is operating, for example, at a 65 per cent occupancy because they’re short of staff, then that means that certainly likely not profitable.”
