Hi There

We are going to start up our own childcare centre in Sydney, but we have some problem to setting up the contract for centre manager, ECT and Diploma educator would be great that if anyone can show us some sample of the contract as well as centre policies and procedure? Also would like to know what documentation we need to prepare to apply for the service licence?

Thank you

Anthony

Hi Anthony,

That's very exciting! Congratulations!

In regards to contracts for educators, I think it's best to go have at look at the Children's Services Award 2010 and add all the necessary requirements in each contract such as sick days, holiday pay, breaks, overtime, public holidays etc. Educators need to understand what your centre will offer them and you should also cover yourself in case of any legal issues in regards to pay etc. Having educators sign a contract is a good idea, however, I think it should be to the terms of the Children's Services Award 2010. You can find that here:

Children's Services Award 2010

In regards to the contract itself, if you go to the Fair Work Australia they have some templates you could use:

Templates and Guides

You could also contact Fair Work Australia directly in get help with all the legal requirements in regards to hiring staff, pay etc.

So have a browse through their site for more information!
