We are partnering with researchers at the University of Wollongong to conduct a study into young children’s screen use. This research will help develop a future health promotion campaign on healthy screen use for children aged 3-5 years.

If you live in south west Sydney and are a parent or caregiver of a child aged 3-5 years, we’d love to hear from you! We are asking parents or caregivers to complete a survey about their child’s screen use. The survey is available in English, Arabic and Vietnamese.

Roya Hussein Omar, Midwifery Unit Manager, says she has always known she wanted to be a midwife.

Inspired by stories from a grandmother who was also a midwife, Roya developed an early understanding of the role as something deeply personal, not just clinical.
One moment that has stayed with her was caring for a first time mother in the postnatal period who was feeling overwhelmed and unsure, despite everything appearing fine on the surface.

Roya took the time to reassure her and create a safe, judgement free space to talk. As the conversation unfolded, the woman became more at ease, leaving feeling more confident and supported.

“It reminded me how important it is to support women after birth, not just during it,” Roya said. “Sometimes it’s not about clinical care, but about being present and helping someone feel heard during a vulnerable time.”

This International Day of the Midwife, we celebrate midwives like Roya, whose care and compassion make a lasting difference beyond the birth itself.
