All the operational decisions for Mother Duck Childcare Centres are made by the Mother Duck Management Committee. The Committee is made up of 12 seats, with each seat holding the same vote. There are currently 10 Centres, and each Centre holds one seat, the Board Chairman holds one seat, and the CEO holds one seat.

There is no right of veto on any decisions. The seats held by the Centres are held by the Centre Franchisees who work in the centres as Nominated Supervisors, and also all hold early childhood qualifications with substantial industry experience.
