Today is RU OK? Day — a reminder that a simple conversation can change a life.

Checking in on those around you doesn’t have to be hard, but it’s important to make sure you’re ready too.

Here are some tips:

❔ Before you ask - Check in with yourself:

- Are you feeling calm and ready to listen?
- Do you have the time and emotional space to support someone right now?
- Have support options ready - Check out the list of services available in the graphic below
👉 Top Tip: save to your phone for future reference

❔ How to Check In With Others:

- Pick the right moment: Find a quiet time when you both can talk privately.
- Ask genuinely: “How are you going?” and really listen to the answer.
- Listen without judgment: Let them share, and don’t rush to give advice.
- Encourage action: Suggest they reach out to their GP - they will know the best support options.
- Follow up: Check in again soon to show you care.

A small conversation can make a big difference. Any day can be an RU OK? Day. 💛

If you are breastfeeding a bub it can be tough, but you’re not alone! 💜

If you’re finding it challenging, our blog has some great tips to help you through.

• Remember, fed is best—do what works for you and your baby.
• Every mum’s journey is unique—don’t compare yourself to others.
• Ask for help when you need it, whether from a lactation consultant, friend, or family member.
• Take care of yourself: rest, hydrate, and nourish your body.

You’re doing an amazing job, even on the hard days. To read more, check out the full list of tips here southcoastal.org.au/our-gift-to-new-mums/

This year’s National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Children’s Day theme is Little Footsteps, Big Future.

This theme honours the journeys our children take as they grow - each step guided by culture, community and connection to Country.

We invite you to join us in recognising the importance of nurturing children’s voices and dreams. Together, we can support a future where every child walks strong in their identity and is empowered to shape their own path.

South Coastal Health & Community Services is proud to support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children in our community via South Coastal Babbingur Mia's Child Health program. To find out more check out our website southcoastal.org.au/babbingur-mia/child-health/
