From January 2026, the Australian Government is helping more families access early learning. Under the new 3 Day Guarantee, every family eligible for Child Care Subsidy will receive a minimum of 72 hours of subsidised early learning each fortnight. This change removes the strict work and study requirements previously tied to accessing subsidised hours of care.

More time to grow, belong and play

At Kool Beanz, early learning is about time, connection, and care. An extra day means more opportunities for your child to feel supported, form friendships, and grow in confidence – helping them step into school life feeling calm, confident, and ready. With the 3 Day Guarantee, this added time is now accessible to more families than ever before.

Families receiving the Child Care Subsidy can now access 72 hours of subsidised care every fortnight, regardless of work, volunteer or study hours. That’s more affordable early learning, more consistency for children, and more breathing room for families.

Calculating your Child Care Subsidy takes under 30 seconds.

The power of an extra day of care

An extra day in care creates space for deeper learning, stronger relationships, and growing confidence. When children attend more consistently, they start to move beyond simply adjusting to their environment.  Cognitive growth and emotional well-being flourish, and they begin to feel more secure, connected, and confident in their surroundings.
