Infant, Child and Youth Mental Health and Wellbeing Services

We offer a range of mental health services and supports to children and young people aged 0-25 years old who live in Frankston and on the Mornington Peninsula.

Our Infant, Child and Youth Mental Health and Wellbeing Program works in partnership with children and young people and their chosen support network to provide holistic, strengths-based and recovery-focused mental health care.   

We work together with our partners from Monash Health as we gradually transition these services provided to children and young people.

Monash Health also provide the acute, inpatient treatment for children under 11 years – Oasis Unit and children and adolescents 12-17 years – Stepping Stones Unit. Both units are located at Monash Hospital in Clayton.
