The role

Child & Family Health Nurse | Northern Rivers, NSW
Permanent Part-Time | 0.6-0.8 FTE | Weekdays
Up to $115,000 p.a + Super + Packaging Salary

Support parents through the early years in a specialist service offering weekday hours, meaningful clinical work and ongoing professional development.

About the Opportunity:

Alor Group is recruiting a Child & Family Health Nurse to join a specialist early parenting service in Grafton, in the Northern Rivers region of NSW.

Working with families with children aged 0–3 years, you’ll provide individualised care, practical parenting guidance and emotional support within a clinic-based setting.

This permanent part-time opportunity offers 0.6–0.8 FTE, with Monday–Friday hours and no weekends or night shifts.

About the Service:

Join an established not-for-profit organisation specialising in early parenting and family wellbeing. The service supports parents experiencing challenges with infant and toddler sleep, feeding, behaviour and the emotional adjustment to parenthood.

Private consultation rooms and extended appointments allow time to understand each family’s concerns, provide practical support and develop an individual care plan. Follow-up care is delivered in person, by telephone and through telehealth.

About the Role:
  • Assess family needs and develop individualised care plans.
  • Provide practical guidance with infant and toddler sleep and settling.
  • Support breastfeeding, feeding and early nutrition.
  • Help parents navigate toddler behaviour and parenting concerns.
  • Assess and support maternal emotional wellbeing, including concerns relating to postnatal depression and anxiety.
  • Coordinate follow-up support and referrals where required.
This is a specialist secondary service, with a focus on early parenting support rather than routine immunisations or developmental milestone checks.

About You:
  • Registered Nurse with current AHPRA registration.
  • Additional registration as a Midwife is preferred.
  • A completed Child & Family Health qualification is highly desirable.
  • Applicants currently undertaking the qualification may be considered, with evidence of enrolment and commencement.
  • Strong communication skills and a compassionate, family-centred approach.
  • An interest in specialist parenting support and ongoing professional development.
What's on Offer?
  • Up to $115,000 p.a + superannuation + Salary packaging available up to $15,900.
  • Regular weekday hours, with no weekend or night shifts.
  • Comprehensive onboarding and approximately 12 months of specialist development.
  • Opportunities to work towards Clinical Nurse Specialist recognition within the organisation.
  • Eligible NSW Health employees may transfer annual, personal and long service leave, subject to eligibility and confirmation.
