The approved provider must ensure that, where there is a swimming pool, spa or other water feature at the residence of an educator who is registered with the service, the educator must be directly supervising and physically in proximity to any child in their care who is near the swimming pool, spa or other water feature. The approved provider must notify the Regulatory Authority at least 14 days before they commence operating in another state. From 31 December 2020 the approved provider must not engage or register a new family day care educator if there is a swimming pool or spa on the site of the proposed family day care residence unless they were in the application process prior to that date. A new educator is an educator not previously registered or engaged to provide a family day care service with any provider.
