Facilities for delegates with young children
ICC Sydney has accessible parenting and carer’s rooms equipped with a feeding area, change table and food preparation area. The dedicated parenting/carer rooms information can be found here.
We unfortunately will not be able to provide creche facilities for the symposium.
Since COVID, the number of childcare companies willing to provide offsite services has decreased significantly. Insurance and risk management, costs, availability and quality of staff and provision of equipment have all been provided by companies as the reasons why they would not provide an offsite service outside their centre.
The safety of the children using a creche at a college meeting has and always will be a top priority for us. If we cannot guarantee this safety or the quality of a provider then we believe it in the best interests of delegates and their children that we do not provide a creche.
