Occasional Care

[Elfin]

Just wondering if anyone has used Occasional Care. Was it a good experience, how did it work and what was the cost?

I am just need to get away from my toddler a few hours now and again so I can recharge. I feel terribly selfish but I am getting very stressed by her behaviour at times.

Can anyone recommend a place in Brisbane??

I use limited hours care not sure if it is the same as occasional care. Anyway it begins at 9.00am goes until 2.00pm. It is $28.00 a day. I think u can claim from centrelink if u are elligible. Children can only go 12 hrs a week. It is fantstic. I love it. Not too long but long enough to get a few things done and have a nice break. pm me if u want more details.

Thank you so much for your reply Michael's Mummy, this is exactly the information I was looking for I think it is the type of care I am after. I just need a few hours to myself now and again.
