A mobile childcare service tailored to your needs
Women in Work is a certified social enterprise that provides a flexible mobile childcare service for organisations that support parents and families.
We know that a lack of childcare excludes many parents from accessing essential programs and services such as attending legal appointments, health information sessions, family violence support, and education and training opportunities.
Our qualified, professional childcare educators travel to your venue and provide childcare for children of all ages, allowing your clients to focus on their session.
Operating as a social enterprise, Women in Work employs childcare certified migrant and refugee women who are experiencing barriers to employment as our childcare educators. All profits from Women in Work directly support their training, skill development, and pathways to employment.
