For over 90 years the Queen Elizabeth Centre (QEC) has provided specialised care, support and guidance to help parents manage the many challenges that arise during early parenthood, from before birth until 4 years of age. Priority is given to families who face physical, psychological, intellectual or environmental challenges which compromise their ability to provide an environment that nurtures and supports the health and wellbeing of their infants.The QEC is widely recognised for its innovative and caring services. QEC provides practical support, education and advice to help parents develop skills to confidently manage the challenges of early parenthood. Maternal and child health nurses, midwives, psychologists, social workers and mothercraft nurses/early childhood workers contribute to the make-up of our clinical staff.
