Enrolment Processes

A clear look at how childcare enrolment works - what to expect, what’s required and what happens next.

What's the typical enrolment process for childcare?

Childcare enrolment can feel like a lot of forms and new terms, but the process usually follows a clear sequence. After you accept a childcare offer, you’ll complete enrolment forms, sign a Complying Written Agreement (CWA), provide key medical and emergency details, receive confirmation from the service, and prepare for your child’s first day. Each childcare service may do things slightly differently, but the overall steps are usually similar. Once you understand the order, the process feels much less overwhelming.
