Curious about the world of Family Day Care and how it might be the perfect fit for your child? Join us as we sit down with Victoria Edmond of Big Hearted Education and Rainbow Bridge Family Daycare Service. Victoria takes us through her inspiring journey from long daycare disillusionment to creating her own nurturing Family Day Care service and debunks the myth that family daycare can't be profitable. 

We cover:

  • What is the difference between Family Day Care and Long Day Care and why might you choose one over the other as a parent?
  • How do children access nature in a Family Day Care Service?
  • What about child protection concerns in Family Day Care?
  • How can I transition out of Long Day Care into Family Day Care?
  • And we bust the myth that you can’t make a profit as a family day care service. So let’s welcome Victoria to the show!

We know as a parents, making the choice between Long Day Care, Family Day Care and Kindy can be a hard choice. Hopefully today’s episode with Victoria will answer a few of your burning questions and give you some tips on what to look out for in any service. And if you’re an educator listening today, we hope it answers some questions you have around why you might choose to become a Family Day Care provider and what to look for when joining a service. 

As always, we love your thoughts, feedback and questions, so feel free to DM us with any questions you may have over on our Raising Wildlings Instagram.

Stay wild!
