An estimated one in five children starting school show signs of mental health vulnerability. That’s an average of 4 or 5 kids in every Australian kindergarten classroom who have already missed out some of the essential foundations they need for life long mental health and well-being.

One thing is clear: prevention can’t wait until school starts…it needs to begin in infancy. When parents are supported to build strong and secure relationships with their babies, children receive the scaffolding they need for future social and cognitive development. This translates into better physical and mental health for everyone.

If you’re tired of waiting for others to take the needs of babies and their families seriously, become a Baby in Mind Supporter.

With your help, we are getting more evidence-based programs to the front line, supporting early parent-baby relationships, when brain development is most rapid, when prevention has its greatest impact…and at the time it matters most.

Baby in Mind has partnered with some of Australia’s leading brands to say thank you to the people who support the work of our charity.  Our community supporters are able to access dozens of big-brand discounts on cost-of-living items including groceries, fuel and clothing, as well as travel and life-style items.
