Doorstop - Sydney

KAREN MORAN, EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATOR: We welcome this decision by the Albanese Labor government today that’s been 20 years in the making. Early childhood educators perform some of the most vital work in the country, but for so long they have been the most undervalued and underpaid. And this decision today will change people’s lives. It means that early childhood educators who've been relying on Foodbank to feed their own families won't have to do that anymore.

Pay rise for early educators while keeping fees down for families

Every day, parents trust early educators with the most important people in their world, and every day Australia asks early educators to do one of the most important jobs imaginable.

Today, we are making sure those educators are fairly paid.

The Albanese Government will fund a 15 per cent wage increase for Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) workers.

This wage increase will be tied to a commitment from Child Care Centres to limit fee increases. We want to make sure workers can be fairly paid without the costs being passed on to families.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning. Great to be with you.
