As Airdmhor Montessori is a licensed early childhood centre, child-care subsidies are available for some children according to certain conditions, set down by Income Support. We will be happy to give you any information on this matter.

It is important to be aware that Income Support Services only pay the subsidies for the sessions/days that your child actually attends the centre, or sessions that you pay for to hold their place. There are certain rules regarding absence of more than 3 weeks at a time or throughout the year, so it is important to become aware of your eligibility with regard to Income Support Policy as soon as you enroll your child.
