Hi Erica,
Welcome to Aussie Childcare Network!
Yes, that's right you will need a working with children's check. The check basically screens you to see if you are eligible to work with children. For their own safety and protection. It does a background check on you and runs a criminal check as well. Once you receive the working with children's check card it is valid for 5 years and you won't have to do the check again until 5 years is complete.
Hope you enjoy work placement,

Re: Working with childrens check
Nice to meet you Erica J
You have an advantage of having kids of your own so this can help you in some ways in completing your certificate 3. Most of the assignments are scenarios or having to do with policies, legislations etc. You can find most information on the web itself. You can always find support in this awesome site too if you need help. This website helped me big time when I was doing my diploma!
