How do I find a CHN?

[sharvs]

My DS is 4 months old and we have never had a Childhood Nurse. He was born in NSW and we moved to QLD when he was 3 weeks old. He goes to the GP for vaccinations etc. We are having a few sleeping problems lately & I think i need some help but I have no idea how to locate a nurse. Should I ring my GP and ask for a refferal?

Also if anyone can reccommend someone - I am in the Warner area so anywhere within about 20 minutes drive is ok.

There are child health clinics scattered around Brisbane....if you follow this link it will tell you where you nearest clinic is. You just call up and make an appointment and voila! No need for a referral from a GP and its all free :)
