This service is provided by Local and State Governments, and is available to parents and carers of children from birth to six years. We contact you following discharge from the Maternity Service (hospital) and offer an initial home visit. The Child & Family Health Service is provided free of charge to you.
Children grow up fast. We can assist parents to assess their child’s health and development. Reviews are recommended when your child is:
- 2 weeks, 4 weeks and 8 weeks
- 4 months, 8 months, 12 months
- 18 months and 2 years
- 3 1/2 years including vision testing.
We offer information and advice on immunisation, childhood illness, sleep and settling, accident prevention, infant feeding and more.
What to bring to the centre
- Nappy change bag
- Something for your baby to lie on
- Your child's health and development record book
