Services Australia works out a family’s CCS percentage based on their family income estimate. The CCS percentage is the amount they’ll subsidise. It will apply to the hourly fee or the relevant hourly rate cap, whichever is lower. Please refer to the Australian government website for more information.

The results from this calculator are estimates only and whilst the calculator is based on government provided information, your actual outcomes may depend on a range of factors outside our control. Please ensure that you contact the Australian Government's Department of Education before making a financial decision on your childcare. Nido Education Pty Ltd (ABN 12650967703) expressly disclaim all liability and responsibility to any person who relies, or partially relies, on the results of the information provided by this calculator.
