Company Description



Abracadabra
is Melbourne's longest established agency (1984) with the original owner and
management which is Australian owned. We were also a founding member and past
Treasurer/Secretary of Australian Association of Nanny Agencies (A.A.N.A)
1994. This association instigated Police checks and First Aid certificates in
the industry and which has finally led to the introduction of the Working
With Children Card for child carers, which is now a legal requirement in
Victoria as in some other states.

ABRACADABRA IN HOME CHILDCARE services is one of Victoria’s inaugural
providers of In Home Childcare, receiving Australian Government Funding from
the Strong Families and Community Strategy: Choice and Flexibility in
Childcare initiative. Abracadabra is a founding member of NICA (2005) and has
served as a committee member of National In Home Childcare Association
(NICA).

Sandy Faure the owner is an accountant by profession. Sandy has experienced
the difficulty of acquiring reliable child services first hand when she
needed assistance after the difficult birth with her own child.

This Agency was created, while Sandy herself was a stay at home mum both
frustrated with the lack of care services available in her local area and the
drive of her business mind to return to the work force saw the birth of
Abracadabra. 27 years on and the business has grown well beyond Sandy’s
expectations and recently has gained support by the government incorporating
the In Home Childcare scheme into her services, as one of the first providers
in Victoria.

Sandy has a very personal relationship with many of her clients and carers
and is always fondly referred to as the cat lady.
