Child health nurse

About: Gingin Community Health Centre

(as the patient),

I love nurse Mary! She has been so compassionate and supportive to me in the few years since my daughter was born. I am a first time mother with no family of my own, and a family history that is full of so much tragedy and trauma that I should probably write a book. I have no positive role models to base my parenting style on. I only know what *not* to do.

Nurse Mary has listened without judgement, and supported me in all of my parenting decisions. She has boosted my confidence, and doted over my daughter. She has given me encouragement, and guided me toward a beautiful, respectful, and responsive parenting style that I have always hoped to achieve. 

I wouldn't be the confident mother I am today without her guidance and support. I think of her as Aunty Mary. I needed to tell the world how much she means to me. Thank you, Nurse Mary.

Dear The Two Shells,

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your positive experience with our child health service and one of our amazing child health nurses, Mary.

It was pleasing to read that Mary provided you with a high level of professional and compassionate care that has helped you to develop your parenting style and skills. It will give me great pleasure to pass on your positive feedback and comments to Mary.

We are proud to offer child health services across the Wheatbelt. Our child health nurses are a highly skilled team who are committed to providing supportive, quality evidence-based care. We are lucky to have such a dedicated team and posts like yours reinforce the importance of that service, especially to first-time mums.

Wishing you and your daughter all the best!

Regina Michel-Huessy
