...year. At Whittlesea Child Care Centre, in Melbourne, coordinator Margaret Hayes recently had a carer quit because she could earn more working in a supermarket. At the East Melbourne Child Care Co-operative, manager Petra Hilsen is happy if just a handful of people apply for a position. Ten years ago, "you got so many you didn't have time to look at them all." Wages in several states are rising thanks to successful union claims - and bigger paychecks mean more than money, says Perth child-care worker Shannon Burns: "It shows the community we are professionals."
