维州的幼儿教育参差不齐，众多问题正在不断凸显，育儿场所由于人手不足导致幼儿安全难以得到保障，当局正在对存在问题的数十家托儿所展开调查。据澳媒报道，如今平均每周都有一家托儿所被强制关闭，过去一年中更是已经关闭了70家。
在强制关闭的众多托儿所中，位于Point Cook的Future Kids Family Day Care曾两度发生儿童独自走出托儿所，最终一位陌生人送回。
位于Footscray的Kids 4 Care Family Day Care则曾经在园内发现了身份不明的成年人……
2019年3月，Werribe West家庭中心也曾发生儿童出走事件，两名儿童在无成年人看管的情况下离开儿童保育中心，径直跑到了限速70公里/小时的行车道上玩耍。这一幕被途径车辆的行车记录仪拍下，震惊到了许多人。
育儿专家表示，很多地方稀缺托儿所，一些家庭无奈将孩子送入制度并不完善的托儿所。
自2018年1月以来，当局已强制关闭70多家托儿所，另有数十家托儿所收到警告，被指将儿童安全置于“不可接受的风险”之中，或者没有合适的人来管理托儿所。
2018年，位于Elwood Primary的Camp Australia因儿童在未被注意的情况下离开该中心，最终以人手不足为由遭到起诉。该机构被罚款1.5万澳元，并被勒令支付相关法律费用，永久关门。
维州教育厅长James Merlino表示，政府致力于淘汰不安全的机构。“我们绝大多数的幼儿服务都做得很好，但我们希望家长们放心，如果机构存在问题，我们会采取行动。我们不会容忍不良或不安全的做法，我们会毫不犹豫地起诉机构或取消他们的运营许可。”
