Background
Help equal access to high quality early education for all.
We believe:
• Parents deserve clear, honest information about how much funding is provided by the government
• Early years providers need sustainable funding that reflects the true cost of delivering quality care, paying fair wages, and maintaining safe, nurturing environments.
• Children deserve access to high-quality early education that supports their development, well-being, and future success
We think our children deserve quality, parents deserve transparency, providers deserve sustainability.
