The need for full day care for children whose mothers worked was recognized in Australia early in this century when three groups were established by the Sydney Day Nursery Association in 1905, the Queensland Creche and Kindergarten Association in 1907, and the Victorian Day Nursery Association in 1913. At this time the need was largely from single‐parent families or from those in severely deprived circumstances. The number of centres remained small. Some subsidy was granted in certain cases by State governments.
