Every child should have access to timely, evidence-based and supportive health care regardless of their geographical location. By offering an Online Child Health Service, delivered by an experienced Maternal Child Health Nurse, families can access care and support from anywhere. I have worked in rural and metropolitan areas and seeing the gross imbalance between the two regarding accessibility and availability of quality services is how Rural Child Health was born. I want more rural families to have the expertise and support they need while raising their families. Becoming a parent or caregiver is a life changing experience and the idea of growing and nurturing the world's next generation is exciting but at times overwhelming. This is why having access to the right support and services is crucial for all families. Child Health encompasses the physical, developmental, behavioural and social growth of your child and includes support for the family as a whole. You may at times ask yourself ‘is this normal?' Rural Child Health can help you navigate through the joys and challenges of parenting from birth right through until 18 years old, specialising in 0-5 years.
