📖 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.
