Default Equivalent childcare qualifications in OZ

We are awaiting a Case Officer on my husbands visa skilled independant, he's a roof tiler we recieved full Ack on 15th Feb.
At present i run a pre-school nursery and hold an NVQ 3 in Early Years childcare and Education.
Does anyone have any idea if this qualification will be any good to me in Australia or if i would have to study further in order to work in childcare.

Any help gratefully appreciated.

It seems that you wont have much trouble getting work, in Qld you need to have, first aid and a blue card, no sure about anywhere else. The money is not great though
