Qualifications
Wondering what all the different qualifications mean when it comes to caring for children? It’s recommended that a nanny has a National Certificate III in Children’s Services, or a Diploma in Children’s Services, or a Bachelor of Education (Early Childhood).
You can find a list of approved and former approved early childhood teaching, diploma and certificate III level qualifications on the ACECQA page. The Australian Children’s Education and Care Quality Authority is an independent national authority that assists governments in administering the National Quality Framework for children’s education and care.
