Our next New Babies Day is coming up and we are so excited!

This is a great opportunity for parents/carers of babies 0-2 years to meet, network and learn from professionals about topics relevant to their babies.

We’re excited to welcome Clare Woods and Srilakshmi Ramakrishnan as our speaker at the upcoming New Babies Day on Saturday, 30 November!

Clare will be presenting on Primary Care and the GROW program, a valuable service provided by CESPHN.
