The Victorian Government is calling for parents and carers with children aged 0 to 12 years to take part in the Raising Children in Victoria(opens in a new window) survey.
The government wants to hear about families’ experiences, needs, preferences and perspectives on raising children in Victoria. This is an important opportunity for the government to hear from all types of families who use early childhood services, including early childhood education and care.
Please share information about how to take part in the survey with parents and carers of children enrolled in your service and any staff members with children aged 0 to 12 years. To help you with this, we’ve developed template text that can go out through your communications channels.
Input from families is central to ensuring Victoria continues to meet their changing needs in the early years and beyond.
About the survey
The survey takes 5 minutes to complete and includes questions for parents and carers including:
- how they find information about raising children
- what services they have used during their child’s development.
The survey responses will help to improve services, and make them easier to find, and more beneficial to families.
