Calculators for childcare centres

The first thing most parents want to know is what care will really cost them. Our calculator answers it on your website, and then shows them the rest of what their family is paid. The Child Care Subsidy, Family Tax Benefit, Rent Assistance and Parenting Payment, from one form, worked out for their own family.

In your colours, with your phone number and a Book a tour button beside the result. Two lines to paste. From $39 a month, with no GST added.

One family, one form, every payment they could get.

A couple earning $80,000 and $30,000, renting at $450 a week, with a 3-year-old in long day care three days a week at $130 a day and a 7-year-old at school. This is the example the calculator starts with. We ran it on 31 October 2026.

The paymentWhat the parent sees
Child Care SubsidyThey pay $73 a week ($3,480 a year). The subsidy pays $16,042 a year.
Family Tax Benefit$4,759 for the year, plus $478 after the year ends
Rent Assistance$121.52 a fortnight, $3,169.05 a year
Parenting Payment$0, and the form says why
Parental Leave PayNo new baby entered, so none

The childcare figure is worked line by line, so a parent can check it. Each day: the fee of $130.00, less the subsidy of $111.40 at their rate of 85.7%, plus $5.57 of it that the government holds back until the year ends. They pay $24.17 a day. Three days is $72.51, shown as $73 a week, and 48 weeks is $3,480.

The payments aren't added into one total, because some of them change the others. The calculator says so on screen.

What parents get

What your centre gets

It doesn't collect leads for you. It gives parents a straight answer and puts your contact details next to it, and we think that does more for a centre than a form asking for their email.

The two packages

PackageWhat's in itA monthA year
ChildcareChild Care Subsidy, Family Tax Benefit and Rent Assistance$39$390

How it goes on your website

Two lines, pasted into your page where the calculator should appear. This one shows the all-in-one family form, from the All your family payments package:

<div data-exactify="family" data-licence="your-licence"></div>
<script src="https://calculators.exactify.com.au/embed.js" async></script>

On the Childcare package, the first line says daycare in place of family. We send you the lines with your own licence in them. If your website builder (WordPress, Wix, Squarespace and most others) takes an HTML block, the lines go in that. The calculator sizes itself to fit, so there is no scrollbar inside your page.

Why parents can trust the numbers

Quick answers

How do we put the calculator on our website?

Paste two lines into the page where you want it: a div that names the calculator, and the embed script. If your website builder takes an HTML block, the lines go in that. The calculator sizes itself to fit, so there is no scrollbar inside your page. You don't need a developer.

Does it collect parents' details?

No. What a parent types stays in their own browser. It isn't sent to us or to you, and the calculators use no cookies. That means it doesn't collect leads for you either: it gives parents their answer and puts your phone number, email and Book a tour button beside it.

Will it show our colours and our name?

Yes. The buttons, the results and the links take your colours, and your centre's name, phone number, email and booking link sit under the results. There is one small line under the calculator that reads "Calculators by Exactify". There is no other logo of ours, no advertising and no link to another centre.

What does it cost?

$39 a month for the Child Care Subsidy, Family Tax Benefit and Rent Assistance calculators, or $69 a month for all five family payments and the form that shows them together. No GST is added. Paying yearly is 12 months for the price of 10. A group with 2 to 4 centres gets 20% off each centre, and 5 or more gets 35% off.

Who keeps the rates up to date?

We do. When the subsidy, the hourly cap or a payment rate changes, we update the calculators. Nothing on your page needs to change.

Does the calculator give parents advice?

No. It gives an estimate from the figures a parent enters, and says on screen that Services Australia decides what a family is paid. It doesn't recommend anything.
