Below is a Media Release Statement from the Australian Childcare Alliance, released on Tuesday 1st July 2025.
Australian Childcare Alliance President Paul Mondo:
“Today’s news that a Victorian childcare worker has been charged with child sex offences will horrify all Australians.
“Parents will understandably be distraught and distressed and should utilise the supports set up by the Victorian Government for affected families.
“These alleged offences are devastating, first and foremost for the impacted children and families, for all the dedicated educators in our sector who are sickened by these atrocious events and across the broader community.
“As a sector, we are committed to improving child safety measures and will continue to work with governments across Australia to keep children safe.”
