📖 Why FDC car seat checks are required

⚖️ Legal requirement for FDC

Family Day Care services are expected to complete annual car seat checks to maintain their approval and meet Victorian regulations — check your specific council’s requirements for exact obligations.

👶 Child safety first

Regular checks verify that every seat is installed correctly, free of damage, and appropriate for each child’s age and size.

🏛️ Council compliance

Most councils require documented car seat checks with an official report and ACRI certificate before approving or renewing your service.

❓ Frequently asked questions

What is a Family Day Care car seat check?
A professional mobile audit of every child restraint used by your Family Day Care service. Our ACRI-accredited technician checks that seats are correctly installed, in safe condition, and compliant with Australian Standards and Victorian FDC requirements.
Is an annual FDC car seat audit a legal requirement?
Family Day Care services — council and independent — are generally expected to conduct regular safety audits of child restraints to maintain approval. Requirements can vary by council, so it’s worth confirming the specifics with your own FDC scheme.
What’s included in the $60 FDC car seat audit?
Our 7-step audit includes: a detailed compliance report and official ACRI certificate, vehicle and anchor point inspection, seat condition and expiry checks, correct installation verification, harness and adjustment review, hands-on educator training, and advice on future seat replacements.
How long does the car seat audit take?
Most audits take between 25 and 40 minutes, depending on the number of car seats. We work around your schedule to minimise disruption to your day.
Do you come to our Family Day Care centre?
Yes — we’re fully mobile and come directly to your centre anywhere across our Bayside and South-East Melbourne service area. No need to transport seats or disrupt your routine.
Which Melbourne areas and councils do you service?

Do you train our educators during the audit?
Absolutely — we provide practical, hands-on training and demonstration on the spot, so your team learns how to correctly install, adjust, and maintain every car seat.
What happens if a car seat fails the audit?
