We know that these are uncertain times. The pandemic may mean you’re facing worries about your job or your finances on top of the everyday realities of parenting 😅.

We know it’s a lot to handle. That’s why we have made it easy for you to self-refer to Karitane. Once we’ve received your self-referral, our intake team will call you to arrange the support you need.

All you have to do is complete the form at ➡️ https://loom.ly/5IQ8Meg

✨In partnership with other leading early parenting, health and family services across Australia, Karitane has launched a new and free parent mental health service called ForWhen to help expectant parents and parents of young babies access critical mental health support.

ForWhen provides new and expecting parents—mums, dads, and guardians —with a caring, supportive mental health navigation service, to guide you and your family throughout your perinatal journey, from conception, up until your child is 12 months old.

It’s a national support line that connects you to the right service that can help you understand what you’re feeling and provide the guidance and support you need, at the right time.

For immediate support, call our free helpline on 📱1300 24 23 22 (between 9.00am-4.30pm Mon-Fri) and in an emergency, always call triple zero (000).
