INFANT Program

The INFANT Program aims to give you all the information, skills and support you need to give your baby a healthy start to life.

Many parents describe the first two years of their baby’s life to be a challenging time, with so many choices and mixed messages around what is best for baby. The Infant Program can give you all the support and knowledge you need to feed and play with your baby with confidence.

A trained health professional will support you and provide information and advice.

The INFANT Program is run in existing social groups and will help improve your knowledge and skills around infant feeding and active play. What is learnt will also help you carry on health behaviours through future stages of your child’s development.

Our Service

INFANT has been developed by Deakin University and consists of four interactive classes, run at 3, 6, 9 and 12 months of baby’s age. This ensures the necessary information is delivered at the most appropriate time.

For further information about the Program please download the INFANT PROGRAM BROCHURE

Or simply refer to the images below.

Eligibility

All parents and carers of infants aged 3 – 12 months are welcome to join. You will be placed in a suitable group based on your baby’s age.

Cost

The INFANT Program is completely free.

Make an Appointment

The INFANT Program is delivered at the Family and Child Hub, which is located at 41 Pine Avenue, Mildura.

If you are interested in attending the INFANT Program please contact our Health Promotion team on 03 5022 544 or via email at hp@schs.com.au
