Hi

There are multiple play group options in different parts of town.

Daycare - we love ours which is in whitlock street, plus there is one in Rule court which is quite good. If I were you I would put your name down on a few as under 2 years is hard to get. The ABC still has a couple as well.

As for schools not sure what is good but again depends where you live. I have a friend who is a techer so can find out what she thinks

Hi, thanx girls, as this post was a while a go I now need to know about antenatal care as im expecting bub n.o 4 due 12 may 10, at the mo I see my doc as he is trained for that and its what i would prefer, with my second we were living in perth and i was having to go between different midwives and diff docs which i wasnt comfortable with but didnt have a choice. Also the hospital. thanx

Hi Jade

I moved to Kal a couple of months ago and am currently expecting baby number one in January. There is only one hospital in Kal and from the dealings I have had so far - the maternity section and the midwives are lovely. There is a couple of options for care - you can choose your OB/GYN (there are several in town) or you can do shared care between the midwives, hospital and the OB/GYN on call. I have chosen my doctor and he is fantastic - if you want to PM me I will send you his details. I am also attending pre-natal classes and the physio department runs fitness classes too! I will be happy to give you more details once I have bubs to let you know about facilites etc - but it all seems pretty good to me from what I have seen.

Cheers

Hi

I have a great GP/Ob. I used a different one last time as I was a high risk pregnacy.

Just PM me if need as well if need and I can give you details

You will need to book into the hospital as well, just ring the maternity ward to do this

Hi Ladies well we're finally here in kal, my sons in school, got my ante care sorted, seeing dr Hodson at tower med centre, just gotta sort daycare and playgroup now amongst trying to unpack, which is proving difficult as theres nowhere to put anything, mainly the kids toys are left still got 5 or so boxes.So stressing out with that, hoping everything will have a home by next week.

Hi ladies

Well after a holiday to Australia last week my DF and I are moving to Kal!!! I'm excited but nervous / anxious / scared at the same time haha. Looking at getting a part time job so I can meet new people. I have a DD who will be 2 in October and we are going to hopefully start trying to expand our family after our wedding in November.
Look forward to talking to you all!
