A record 4446 people filled out the 2016 CareforKids.com.au Child Care and Workforce Participation Survey, demonstrating how important early childhood education and care is to parents and child care professionals.
This year we more clearly directed some questions to parents and carers and some questions to early childhood professionals.
Of our 4446 survey respondents just under 60 per cent were parents and just over 40 per cent identified as early childhood education and care providers.
What providers said
This year we sought to learn more about how early childhood providers feel about the child care system in Australia and what could be done to improve the current challenges. The issue of pay for early childhood professionals is often raised as a problem and a resounding 70 per cent of you feel that low pay is the main reason we don't have enough people working in the early childhood sector.
