HI there,
Im wondering what you feel acceptable ratios in a 12-24 month room. say 13 children... how many staff would you expect in the room?
Also, how many hours a week do you get to do planning and observation write ups?
Thanks

Re: Ratios In The Nursery & Programming Time
The ratio for the babies room is 1:4 (NSW). So, for 13 children you are required to have 4 staff.

According to the Children's Services Award:
Employees who are responsible for preparing, implementing and/or evaluating a developmental program get a minimum of 2 hours per week to plan, prepare, evaluate and program activities. These 2 hours count as part of their ordinary hours.
