A man has been charged with the rape of an 11-year-old girl and the attempted rape of her four-year-old sister at a family day care centre in Queensland.

Police allege the 56-year-old man from the Logan area, south of Brisbane raped the girl and tried to rape her sister while they were being cared for at his home between July last year and April 28.

Details of the charges were revealed when he was released on bail by Supreme Court Justice John Bond, The Courier Mail reported.

The man was charged on May 4 with nine counts related to child molestation and rape which allegedly occurred at the in-home day care centre operated by his wife.

He denied any involvement in the child molestation.

He allegedly told both girls ‘don’t tell anyone,’ the Courier Mail reported.

The court heard that the man was well trusted by the victims’ family to look after the children.

Police allege the man raped the 11-year-old girl on a couch at his home and showed her pornographic images on his iPhone while driving her to school.

The four-year-old sister told police she performed a sex act on the man in the lounge room after he showed her how, and the 11-year-old said she witnessed this.

The court was told that the man had a ‘blue card’ clearing him to work with children but he was not a ‘licensed worker in the business,’ the Courier Mail reported.

As a condition of his bail Justice Bond prohibited the man from contacting the girls’ family.

The man’s wife has since shut down the day care centre.

He is due to appear in Beenleigh Magistrates Court on June 30.

  • Because of all these news I do not trust anyone. Not even family friends or even their teenage children. It is becoming harder and harder to trust anyone these days.

  • NSW requires a working with children check in some circumstances my understanding is that it only alerts if there have been any criminal convictions related to children, ie how many incidents go unreported. I do question where was the wife at the time these incidents occurred? It was her business, was she involved? How could she have not known? Appalling and hope these young girls can move past this terrible event and learn to trust again.

  • are children not safe anywhere?
    How easy is it to get a blue card?? Maybe there should be more indepth checks, although I am unsure as to how this could be done, before a bluecard is issued. Or before people are employed to work with children.

  • A horrible thing to happen to these young girls, and devastating for the parents and the female child care owner. I would chemically castrate the monster.


    • It is Family Day Care which probably means the children are minded in the owner’s house. The 4 year old girl may not have understood what she was actually being asked to do.
