A child's early years are a critical time in life, and Eurobodalla Council's Louise Hatton says her children's services team want to make sure local children can access all the resources they need to flourish and thrive.
"We understand that a positive start to learning will have long term impacts on a child's future, and Children's Week is a great time to celebrate that," she said.
"Council runs services for babies to children up to 12 years that support families to be active and contributing in our communities.
"We have playgroups, parent and baby groups, Family Day Care, as well as OOSH Kids, our out-of-school-hours programs.
"They're all really popular," she said. "In fact we have waiting lists for Family Day Care in Narooma, Moruya and Broulee.
"We're always on the look out for exceptional educators to join our team. Roles range from starting your own Family Day Care business to casual positions with our playgroups or OOSH Kids, so please get in touch if you'd like to be part of our service."
