QEC

QEC Children are at the heart of everything we do. At QEC, we believe every child deserves the best start in life. But that’s only the beginning.

That’s why we’ve been partnering with families in Victoria for over 100 years – and are proud to be Victoria’s largest provider of early parenting services. We support families with children aged from newborn until their 4th birthday, delivering specialised services, guidance and education. Every family and child is different, so our approach is tailored to you. From residential, day-visit, and telehealth programs, we’ll help you find the right support at every stage. All our programs are delivered by our specialised team, made up of Registered/Enrolled Nurses, Early Parenting Practitioners, Allied Health Professionals, Social Workers, Maternal and Child Health Nurses, Mental Health Clinicians, Midwives, Psychologists, Art Therapists and General Practitioners. Parents and carers often tell us how rewarding it is to see their children’s personalities shine through during their time with us at QEC. At QEC we get to enjoy the rewards of seeing parents become more capable and bring joy back into their parenting relationships. It’s all about building confident, healthy, sustainable routines, habits, communities and families that enable children to thrive.

QEC and Tweddle Child & Family Health Service have announced we are exploring a voluntary merger to strengthen care for babies, children and families.

For more than a century, both organisations have supported Victorian families during the critical early years. Now, as Victoria’s largest and most experienced Early Parenting Centres, we are exploring whether working as one organisation could strengthen outcomes and experiences for babies, children and families, improve access to services and build an even stronger early parenting sector.

Throughout this exploration, both organisations will continue to deliver the same high-quality care and support families rely on, with no changes to services.

Over the coming months, we’ll be listening to staff, families, partners and the community to understand what matters most and whether working as one organisation would deliver clear benefits for the Victorian community.

Your voice matters.
· Consultation is open from 24 February to 31 March 2026.
