The ECEC compliance challenge

Australian child care providers operate under one of the most demanding regulatory frameworks in education. The complexity grows with every centre.

Qualifications tracked in spreadsheets

Educator certificates, WWCC renewals, and training records scattered across files make it hard to know who is current and who is not.

Expiry dates slip through

Working with Children Checks, first aid certificates, and professional development hours all have deadlines. One missed expiry puts your service at risk.

Assessment prep is a scramble

When ACECQA calls, pulling together evidence for all seven Quality Areas from scattered folders and inboxes becomes a stressful, last-minute project.

No visibility across centres

Multi-site operators cannot see educator compliance status across all centres from one view, creating blind spots and audit risk.

Built for Australian ECEC regulation

NovoCove maps directly to the frameworks that govern your sector.

  • ACECQA National Quality Framework (NQF)
  • National Quality Standard (NQS) — all seven Quality Areas
  • Working with Children Checks (WWCC) — all states and territories
  • First aid, CPR, anaphylaxis, and asthma training
  • Professional development and qualification progress
  • Educator-to-child ratio compliance

NovoCove helps you organise compliance work. It does not provide official regulatory approval and does not guarantee compliance.

Everything you need for ECEC compliance

NovoCove brings your child care compliance activities together so they are easier to track and maintain.

Educator qualification tracking

Monitor ACECQA-approved qualifications, certificate progress, and professional development hours with automated expiry alerts.

WWCC tracking by state

Record every staff member's Working with Children Check (WWCC, Blue Card, Ochre Card) with automated renewal alerts before expiry.

QIP action management

Turn Quality Improvement Plan actions into structured workflows with owners, due dates, linked evidence, and closure history mapped to NQS Quality Areas.

NQF evidence linking

Attach documents, photos, training records, and incident notes directly to the seven National Quality Standard areas for instant retrieval during Assessment and Rating.

Educator-to-child ratios

Track which educators are assigned to which rooms and monitor qualification coverage against NQF ratio requirements in real time.

How does NovoCove help with QIP management?
NovoCove turns QIP actions into structured workflows with assigned owners, due dates, linked evidence, and closure history. Each action can be linked to the relevant NQS Quality Area, making it easy to show assessors how your service continuously improves.

How does NovoCove help with Assessment and Rating?
NovoCove makes Assessment and Rating preparation continuous rather than a last-minute scramble. Evidence is linked to NQS Quality Areas year-round, QIP actions are tracked with owners and due dates, and educator qualifications are monitored with expiry alerts.
