Babies grow quickly! Completing an ASQ is a built-in pause to pay close attention to what is happening. Take a moment to notice details you might miss in the busyness of the day. Itโ€™s an opportunity to appreciate how much your child is learning in real time.

Stacking blocks, pointing to pictures, clapping hands; these simple moments reveal so much about development. Pointing is an early sign of communication; stacking blocks shows problem-solving and motor skills; clapping demonstrates coordination and social engagement. The ASQ helps you see the meaning inside the play!

It's National Breastfeeding Week! Breastfeeding support starts before your baby arrives!

Learning how to feed your baby during pregnancy can help you know what to expect, build confidence and learn where to access support. Having early, skilled support in the days and weeks after baby arrives helps you recognize whatโ€™s going well and overcome challenges you may face.

Our Infant feeding clinic offers 1:1 prenatal breastfeeding education and feeding support/weight checks once baby is here.
