There has been a change to the NSW Public Health Act: child care facilities now require a vaccination certificate on enrolment. Parents will no longer be able to enrol a child in childcare unless they are up to date with immunisations (or on a recognised immunisation catch-up schedule). Your child’s Immunisation Certificate can be downloaded from the Medicare App or from your MyGov account if it is linked to Medicare.
