Plunket runs New Zealand's free Well Child Tamariki Ora service, and its clinics offer nurse-led checks for children from birth to five: weighing and measuring, development reviews and practical advice on feeding, sleep and safety, following a set schedule of visits by age. Regulars know to bring the child's Well Child health book to every appointment and to book ahead, since clinics work by appointment rather than drop-in. Nurses are also a first port of call for anxious new parents, and questions between visits can go to PlunketLine at any hour.
For whānau around Oranga and Onehunga, having Plunket based at the community centre on Waitangi Road puts trusted child health care close to home.
