Complex Care Registered Nurse
Our Complex Care Registered Nurse plays a vital role in supporting children with complex medical needs. With specialised training and extensive experience, our nurse provides comprehensive care that addresses both medical and developmental challenges. From managing enteral feeding, tube weaning, and medication support, to coordinating with our multidisciplinary team, our Complex Care Registered Nurse ensures that each child's unique needs are met with compassion and expertise. By working closely with families, our nurse helps to create and implement individualised care plans that promote health, well-being, and overall development in a supportive and nurturing environment.
The Grow Baseline
The GROW Baseline is a one-off or short series of appointments that include
✅ A deep dive into your child’s health, feeding, sleep, and medications
✅ A review of reports, notes, and current concerns
✅ Collaboration with your existing therapists (if needed)
✅ A clear, plain-English summary and recommendations to move forward – including support for a clear plan when seeing your paediatrician or specialist
The GROW Baseline is not intended to replace your therapeutic team but rather to add additional holistic support.
Complex Toileting
Toileting can be a complex process, particularly for children with additional needs. Our dedicated team of specialists are here to provide comprehensive support tailored to your child's unique needs. We begin with a thorough assessment to understand the specific continence challenges your child may be facing. This includes evaluating physical, sensory, and behavioural factors that might be influencing their toileting abilities.
Based on this assessment, we create individualised toileting plans that are designed to meet your child's needs and fit seamlessly into their daily routines. Our plans focus on building independence, boosting confidence, and ensuring that your child feels comfortable and supported throughout the process. We also work closely with families to provide education and strategies that can be implemented at home, ensuring consistency and success.
At GROW Paediatrics, we are committed to helping your child achieve continence in a way that promotes dignity, self-esteem, and a sense of accomplishment. Whether your child is just beginning toilet training or facing ongoing challenges, GROW can support this process.
Continence Assessments
We’re so excited to introduce a new service led by our beautiful complex care nurse, Beth—a registered nurse with extensive experience and additional training in toileting and continence support.
Beth now offers continence assessments for children aged 2–16 years, available face-to-face or via telehealth. Each assessment includes a detailed report with recommendations and continence aid suggestions—perfect for supporting NDIS plan reviews or new applications.
Whether you're just starting your toileting journey or need support with more complex needs, Beth provides kind, expert care to guide your family every step of the way.

Sleep
We understand that sleep is essential for your child’s well-being and development. Our dedicated team, including an occupational therapist with extensive post-graduate training and a paediatric nurse with specialised expertise, is here to help. We offer comprehensive sleep assessments and develop individualised plans tailored to your child's unique needs. Whether your child struggles with falling asleep, staying asleep, or establishing a healthy sleep routine, we provide the support and guidance your family needs to achieve restful nights and brighter days
Feeding Therapy
We understand that feeding can be a complex and challenging journey for many families. Our dedicated team of specialists offers comprehensive support for a wide range of feeding difficulties, including Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID), craniofacial abnormalities, intravenous feeding needs, tube weaning, breast and bottle feeding challenges, transitioning to solids, and picky eating behaviours. We provide individualised, evidence-based interventions tailored to each child's unique needs, focusing on creating positive and enjoyable feeding experiences. Through compassionate care and collaborative strategies, we empower families and help children develop healthy, nourishing relationships with food that support their growth and well-being.
IV Feeding Support and Education
We are committed to supporting the health and well-being of children who require IV feeding, ensuring they can participate fully and safely in their educational journey. We can help with:
- Customised IV Feeding Plans: We develop individualised IV feeding plans that cater to each child’s specific nutritional needs and medical requirements. These plans are designed in collaboration with healthcare professionals, families, and educational staff to ensure seamless integration into the child’s daily routine.
- Education and Training for Educators: We provide specialized training for educators and support staff to help them understand the essentials of IV feeding, including safe handling, monitoring, and emergency procedures. This training empowers educational settings to confidently support children with IV feeding needs.
- Ongoing Support and Consultation: Our team is available for ongoing consultation to address any concerns or challenges that may arise, ensuring that each child’s IV feeding is managed effectively and safely.
