Technology That Puts Children’s Safety First

Australia’s early learning sector is moving toward higher expectations of supervision, transparency and documentation — driven in part by the federal, state and territory governments’ trial of CCTV in childcare services to strengthen oversight and protect children in care.

We work with childcare centres to design IT, CCTV and access control that support your educators and protect children, while still preserving the warmth and feel of your centre. Using UniFi Protect and UniFi Access, we create zones for front doors, playgrounds, sleep rooms and staff areas, with alerts that help you be proactive: from doors held open too long to unexpected movement in restricted spaces.

Zone-based CCTV layouts for entries, rooms, yards and sleep areas aligned to supervision requirements
Door access rules to separate public, parent and staff-only spaces with clear audit history
Alerts when doors are forced, held open, or accessed outside hours, so you can act quickly
Secure network design so cameras, admin systems and child records stay protected from cyber threats

Why Childcare CCTV Standards Are Changing Across Australia

Governments across Australia are placing increasing focus on safety, supervision and incident transparency in early learning environments. The national CCTV trial in childcare services is exploring how modern camera systems can improve visibility, reduce incidents of serious harm and provide clearer evidence when reviews or investigations are required.

For centres, this means a growing expectation to show how you manage supervision in low-visibility areas, control access to the premises, and retain accurate records when something happens. It also means balancing strong safeguards with a warm, child-friendly environment that families and educators feel comfortable in.

Better oversight of sleep rooms, transition corridors and outdoor areas
Clearer incident history to support reviews with regulators, insurers and parents
Evidence of supervision and access processes in line with the National Quality Framework
Practical steps you can take now ahead of any future regulatory changes

Childcare Safety & IT Services

With the national childcare CCTV trial highlighting the importance of supervision, access control and incident documentation, centres are expected to show how their environment keeps children safe. From secure Wi-Fi and admin systems to door access and cameras, we bring everything together into a single, manageable platform that supports your regulatory obligations and day-to-day operations.
