Supporting Families in the First 1,000 Days
The first 1,000 days of a child’s life are critical for their lifelong health and wellbeing. This early year’s period is the most active time for children’s brain and physical growth.

We acknowledge all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as traditional owners of the lands on which we walk, live and raise our children.
We pay our respects to traditional owners past, present, future and any Aboriginal people present here today. We acknowledge the importance of children being raised with connections to culture, community and family.

As Dental Health Week approaches, let's prioritise the importance of oral hygiene for toddlers and young children.
This year, the goal is to help parents learn important tips and habits that can help their kids have healthy teeth and gums for life.
Maintaining good dental habits from an early age is important for preventing cavities and ensuring overall oral health.
