The submission criteria for the Excellence in Family Day Care Awards is shaped by the findings of the Perspectives on Quality in Australian Family Day Care research project. This project established an evidence base of key foundations that underpin quality in family day care including professional practice, relationships, flexibility, autonomy and diversity and social support.
Submissions received by educators will be evaluated on the following criteria:
The Emerging Star - The winner of the award must have started their role no earlier than 1 January 2021.
The Perpetual Star - The winner of the award must have been registered with the family day care sector for a period of at least 15 years.
