Do you feel exhausted? Are you worried about breast feeding? Is your child's sleeping, eating or behaviour pattern making you worry? Are you at the end of your tether?
Our website has information on some of the more frequent concerns we hear at QEC. This information may help you. Or simply call QEC; we are here to help.
When you call, we get some initial information from you about you, your child and your family. We will then make an appointment for you and a QEC maternal and child health nurse. The nurse will phone you back for a detailed initial consultation to discuss your issues and determine whether you require access to further QEC early parenting services.
Help is just a telephone call away!
