Child Health
You can yarn with a child health nurse during pregnancy, after your bub is born, and up to the age of five years.
What can we support you with?
A child health nurse can support with:
- breastfeeding and feeding advice
- care for premature bubs
- immunisations
- importance of play for bubs and jarjum
- introduction of solid food
- responsive parenting – responding to your child’s needs and feelings
- sleeping and settle bub
- understanding your child’s growth and development
Who we are
Our child health nurses are registered nurses or midwives who have additional experience in the 0-5 age group. We provide culturally safe support to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander mums, bubs and jarjum.
We will walk alongside you to look after you, and your child’s health and wellbeing, in your way. We listen without judgement; your story will be respected.
Where to start?
The first step is to have a yarn about child health for Mob.
