Welcome to Nurture Geelong

Nurture Geelong offers mental health support to mothers, fathers, and caregivers through every stage of the perinatal journey. We provide compassionate, evidence-based care during pregnancy and the postpartum period, helping parents navigate the emotional, psychological, and relational changes that can accompany welcoming a new baby.

"If a community values its children, it must cherish its caregivers."
— John Bowlby

Our Story

Nurture Geelong is a locally based therapy service focused on providing psychological support for mothers, fathers and caregivers. The aim is to provide a space for women to feel nurtured during one of the most vulnerable times of their lives, motherhood. It is important to us that mothers feel they have a place to explore their journey with no pressure or judgment. We hope to minimise the deteriorating mental health of mothers and burnout so many experience.
