Roving Childcare

At Fair Foundations, we believe every parent and carer deserves the chance to access opportunities for their own growth and support, knowing their child is safe, happy, and cared for.

What is Roving Childcare?

Our Roving Childcare service provides on-site child-minding for local organisations and schools across the Fairfield Local Government Area. 

Whether you’re running parenting groups, training sessions, workshops, or community events, we can care for children on-site so parents and carers can participate fully.  

Our experienced educators set up engaging, age-appropriate activities that keep children entertained, supported, and safe throughout the session. We bring along toys, puzzles, games, playdough, and even arts and crafts activities where suitable. 

Why choose Fair Foundations for Roving Childcare?

We work with a variety of organisations, such as local schools and community groups, supporting programs that help families connect and thrive.

Children enjoy fun, play-based activities that support their development while giving parents peace of mind.
