Child Care Subsidy Calculator

A real, working calculator, the kind we’d build around your pricing and brand.

CCS depends on your combined family income, your activity level (work/study), and how many children you have in care.

What’s shaping your result
More than 48 hoursOne
You’re likely on a tapered CCS rate

Your subsidy sits on the sliding scale between the 90% maximum and zero, based on income. Your activity level sets how many hours per fortnight are subsidised. Services Australia calculates the exact rate.

Your eligibility checklist
  • Combined income at or under ~$83k for the full 90%
  • Enough recognised activity for more subsidised hours
  • Higher rate available for a second child under 5
How we estimate this

The Child Care Subsidy (CCS) is paid directly to your provider to reduce your fees. The percentage starts at 90% for families earning up to about $83,000 and tapers down by roughly 1% for every $5,000 of extra income, reaching zero above about $533,000.

Indicative only, built from your numbers and your own uplift assumption, not our promise. The point: even a small lift in enquiries pays back a one-off calculator fast for a childcare centre.

Sound familiar?

  • Families confused about CCS and real out-of-pocket fees
  • Enquiries lost because fees look high before subsidy
  • Staff answering the same subsidy questions repeatedly

Frequently asked questions

Will showing prices put customers off?

It does the opposite, an indicative range with a clear “request a quote” filters out unrealistic budgets and warms up serious buyers before they call.

Isn’t this just a custom-built calculator?

It is, but a custom interactive calculator from a web agency typically runs $3,000–$8,000 and takes weeks. We build yours around your real pricing and brand, tuned to your trade, embed it, and keep it accurate, for a fraction of that, in days. You get the finished tool, not a blank template and a list of homework.

What does it cost?

A one-off build, from $990 for a single calculator, $2,490 for a full multi-service quote builder. You own it: no subscription, optional updates from $149.
