HOW DO I ENROL AT NEET'S FAMILY DAYCARE ?
If you are interested in enrolling your child, the first step is to contact the educator and arrange a parent visit. Come and visit to experience how we provide care. This is the time when the educator and the families communicate and discuss care and education requirements for their child.
