About this listen
Some childcare centres in Australia are so understaffed that children are left alone for hours. Other centres spend less than a dollar a day on feeding them.
Yet the industry receives billions in public subsidies and dodgy centres are allowed to keep operating even after serious breaches.
What’s emerging is a picture of a broken childcare system – one where regulators aren’t doing their job and no one is held to account.
Today, NSW Greens MLC Abigail Boyd on what she uncovered about the horrific abuse unfolding in Australian childcare centres – and why we are allowing the pursuit of profit over safety.
