About

The Karitane Fairfield Integrated Child and Family Hub is a welcoming community space on Darug land where families can drop in to play, join a playgroup or get parenting, health and family support services - all in one place.

Our services are free and open to all families.

We walk alongside families from pregnancy through to five years of age taking time to listen, understand your goals, and support you in ways that feel right for your family. The hub has been designed with families, for families.

The Fairfield Integrated Child and Family Hub makes it easier for families to connect with community, get support early, build confidence as a parent, and support children to grow, learn and thrive.

Our Service Navigators  make it easier to connect with the support available to you. They can help you explore the services, programs and supports available at the Hub and accross the community, making it easier to access the right support at the right time.

The hub brings together different services and organisations in one welcoming community space. Families can connect with parenting support, playgroups, child and family health services, mental health support and community programs close to home.

By working together, services can better support families and make it easier to get help early. A list of organisations and services available at the hub is below.
