The Kids Hub is your rural paediatric health hub helping you find the supports,
resources and services you need for your child, wherever you live in Australia.
And we’re starting off with the Great Southern Region of Western Australia.
Hello there! I’m Kate, a mother of three, wife, farmer & teacher. My mission is to create a positive impact in rural and regional Australia.
My journey began with a life-changing experience with our youngest son, Darcy, which ignited a passion within me to advocate for bridging the gap in rural health and education.
I firmly believe that by fostering positive relationships, we can minimise this gap.
As a parent, I understand firsthand the unique challenges of accessing support and obtaining a diagnosis for your child, especially in rural areas where resources may be limited. The geographical and emotional isolation only adds to these challenges.
That’s why I am thrilled to collaborate with Pia, as together, we aim to assist more families like ours and make their journey a little bit easier. You are not alone on the roller coaster. X
Hey there! I’m Pia, mum of two gorgeous curly-haired kiddos. I grew up in country WA and imported a rugby-loving husband from NSW.
Ten years ago our lives changed when we found out our baby would be born with a heart defect. We have since seen (seemingly) every kind of paediatric specialist and allied health practitioner in Perth.
In 2021 I started collating and sharing lists of paediatricians and allied health professionals to help stressed families out. It’s now grown into Perth Kids Hub, an online platform connecting families with therapists and doctors.
When Kate and I found each other, we knew we needed to team up to extend that same help to families in rural and regional Australia.
Perth Kids Hub is your online guide to Perth’s *amazing* paediatric therapists, specialists, educators and schools who support kids & teens who learn, think or develop differently.
Perth Kids Hub is created in Boorloo (Perth) on the land of the Whadjuk Noongar people. I acknowledge the traditional custodians throughout Western Australia and their continuing connection to the land, waters and culture. I pay my respects to all Aboriginal peoples; Elders past, present and emerging.
