The NSW In-Home Childcare Services (NSWIHCS) is an educative In-Home care brokerage model funded by the Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations.

It is sponsored by the NSW Family Day Care Association Inc.

NSWIHCS outsources In-Home care for families who meet the eligibility criteria.

It appoints a licensed child care service or other service (called the In-Home Child care Service Provider - IHCSP) that can demonstrate and commit to overseeing the best practice aspects of care provision, including recruiting and training educators, interviewing eligible families and providing day to day support and monitoring of the In-Home care placement.
