Tresillian Family Care Centres

Tresillian, oh my savior Tresillian. This place is a god send to all parents — in particular for mothers who often get the night shift duty in the baby phase. I was referred here by my community nurse when my daughter was 6 months old and not sleeping well. It turned into a longer love affair with the place, for reasons, I had regular visits. The staff there — including Jan (a sleep nurse angel), Lyn (reception angel), Kerry (councilor angel), Mari and Margaret (the real ‘rock’ women of the world) — are like a community of nurtures that only a new mum suffering severe sleep deprivation could really appreciate.
Apart from the Tresillian angels frequenting the halls at Wollstonecraft the other thing I love about this place is the old building. It has so much character and charm — I often imagine when I arrive being a new mum 200 years ago visiting and having an equally warm and welcomed feeling.
I went there for a day treatment and the advice I got turned my baby into a hourly waker to a less frequent waker with a solid day sleep routine. I can’t rave about it enough nor can those in my mother’s group who have also used the service.
The Wollstonecraft Tresillian has an occasional day care for those mum’s with 0 – 14 month year olds who just need a break or have some errands they’d like to run. It’s not day care you can use on a weekly basis per se. They’re open from 9.30 to 2.30pm Wednesday to Friday and it costs about $ 55 but this may vary for a number of reasons.
