New Maternity, Child and Family Health Service
Did you know that there's a brand new Maternity, Child and Family Health Service at our Vaucluse Bowling Club and Community Facility?
I recently stopped by to check it out and am so proud of what we are now able to offer to local parents and families in our LGA through our partnership with the South Eastern Sydney Local Health District.
Available services include midwifery, antenatal and postnatal assessments as well as early childhood health and developmental checks, breastfeeding support and access to new parent groups.
If you or someone you know is starting a family in the local area, I encourage you to take full advantage of this this fantastic service.
Head to Vaucluse Bowling Club for more info.

Epping Reserve and Kiaora Road Reserve upgrades
Play is such an important part of growing up and we think all play spaces in Woollahra should be fit for everyone.
We also understand the need for more play opportunities for children in our local area and the desire of our community to have more nature-inspired play elements in our parks and reserves.
Our Woollahra Play Space Strategy identified Epping Reserve and Kiaora Road Reserve in Double Bay as appropriate spaces for new nature play elements to help meet community needs, so we have created draft designs for proposed new play elements and are now seeking your feedback - particularly from local parents, carers and children who may use them.
Please share your thoughts at Your Say Woollahra by Wednesday 14 May.
