There are currently 1.85 million children under the age of 5 in Australia, with an average cost of $65-$175 to send a kid to childcare — per day.

KidNest connects parents to create safe, affordable, local childminding villages that work for them, freeing them up to get back to work, study or play. And it’s not just an alternative to traditional childcare – it’s flexible enough to work with and around the existing childcare parents already have.
