The role encompasses a wide range of responsibilities such as workplace health and safety, human resource management, strategic planning, financial and resource management, and sustainability. Importantly, it also includes ensuring compliance with legislative requirements such as the regulations for early childhood education and care services, which also include compliance with the National Quality Standards.

The Business of Child Care addresses competencies dealing with managerial and operational aspects of working in Child Care, taking a holistic approach to the delivery of the content. This edition has been written to support training and delivery of the Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care.
