Child Care

Unfortunately, there are no child care facilities at ADFA, and the demand does not appear to be sufficient to make it economic for us to offer them for the conference. However, we offer the following information as is from the ACT Children's Services regarding day care services that may be of assistance.

The most convenient centre to ADFA is:

Campbell Child Care Centre
Contact Marie Leedham
Phone (+61 6) 247 1084.

However this is a long term day care centre and there are unlikely to be many (if any) vacancies.

The nearest occasional care centres to ADFA are

Manuka Occasional Care Centre
Flinders Way, Manuka, ACT 2603
Phone (+61 6) 295 6503
Fax (+61 6) 295 0730

Civic Occasional Care
Marcus Clark St, Canberra City, ACT 2601
Phone (+61 6) 248 5697

Both normally take bookings only one week in advance although they may be prepared to book further ahead on written application.
