Our regular Drop-in Service will be closed on 3rd and 11th of December 2024. We apologise for the inconvenience and encourage you to attend another session as outlined in our drop-in service brochure.
The Maternal and Child Health Service offer free drop-in baby feeding support for parents and carers living in the City of Whittlesea.
These sessions don't replace scheduled key age and stage assessments for children, but are suitable for follow ups and review as needed.
Chat with lactation consultants and midwives about breastfeeding, bottle feeding, introducing solids, picky eating or any other issues with feeding your baby.
No appointment is needed, but we suggest that you arrive at the beginning of session time when your baby is ready to feed.
Please note that drop-in services are closed on public holidays and on-site interpreters are not available.
