Koori Maternity Services
MATERNAL AND CHILD HEALTH SERVICE
Wathaurong Aboriginal Co-operative offers a Maternal Child Health service for families of children from birth to school age. The program provides our community the choice to access an Aboriginal led MCH service with culturally supportive care. We offer both in home support and on-site appointments, which are at 11-12 Albert St, Geelong West.
Maternal and Child Health Nurses can help with things like breastfeeding and feeding your child; sleep and settling; making sure your child is growing, learning, and developing well; being a parent and looking after yourself. There are key ages and stages that your child will go through that you will visit your MCH nurse for check-ups and support.
For any other questions about the Wathaurong MCH program, please email mch@wathaurong.org.au
There is also a 24 hr MCH telephone support service that is available to all Victorian families - call 13 22 29 to speak to a Maternal and Child Health nurse at any time of the day or night.
