City Of Ballarat - Maternal and Child Health

Our Maternal and Child Health (MCH) service is free for City of Ballarat families with babies and children, from birth to school age.

This service supports families with helpful information on a wide variety of topics in early parenting, child health and development, and family health and wellbeing issues. Maternal and Child Health can provide specialist referrals and help to link families with local community based supports, and enable social connections with other parents.

Maternal and Child Health Nurses are registered nurses and registered midwives with additional tertiary qualifications in maternal and child health nursing in preparation for community based work with families.
