有两名澳大利亚儿童死于无照家庭护理;专家们警告说,不受管制的儿童保育会带来危险。 Two Australian children died in unlicensed home care; experts warn of dangers from unregulated childcare.

澳大利亚专家警告父母,在两起涉及在家经营中儿童被禁闭和15周内死亡的案件之后,父母可能会面临无照照看儿童的风险。 Australian experts warn parents about the risks of unlicensed childcare after two cases involving children restrained in home-based operations and a 15-week-old’s death. 在墨尔本,一名妇女因经营未经批准的日托而被定罪,在未经培训或父母同意的情况下利用绳子限制子女。 In Melbourne, a woman was convicted for running an unapproved daycare, using tethers to restrain children without training or parental consent. Robinvale的另一名妇女在一名4个月大的婴儿在未经登记的护理环境中死亡后被定罪,死因不明。 Another woman in Robinvale was convicted after a four-month-old died in an unregistered care setting, with the cause undetermined. 当局强调,任何照顾4名或4名以上13岁以下儿童领取工资的人都必须登记,因为由于缺乏监督、背景调查和标准,不受管制的服务往往通过口语隐藏起来,因而有安全风险。 Authorities stress that anyone caring for four or more children under 13 for pay must be registered, as unregulated services—often hidden through word of mouth—pose safety risks due to lack of oversight, background checks, and standards. 儿童保育费用不断上涨可能会促使家庭选择更便宜、没有许可证的选择,对儿童福利的日益关切,并促使人们呼吁进行更深入的审查。 Rising childcare costs may drive families toward cheaper, unlicensed options, increasing concerns about child welfare and prompting calls for greater scrutiny.
