New childcare reforms guarantee all eligible Australian families three days of subsidised childcare per week, removing activity requirements for the first 72 hours of fortnightly care. Households earning up to a combined $530,000 can now access the subsidy without meeting work or study requirements for these initial three days, with activity tests only applying to additional days of care. The changes aim to help parents return to the workforce while providing children access to regulated early childhood education.
