The Maternal and Child Health phone app

The Maternal and Child Health app (MCH app) provides reliable information that families can use every day.

App features

Download the free MCH app for trusted information matched to the age of your child, at your fingertips. The app:

• includes an interactive growth tracker for parents and carers to record the growth of their child
• sends parents and carers reminders about upcoming MCH appointments
• has an interactive digital assistant, Ask Nora, which matches questions to a database of topics to give an AI-powered chat response.

Help with your child's vaccinations

The MCH app also helps you manage your child's vaccinations by providing:

• detailed information on the benefits of child immunisation, and how to detect and manage reactions
• a list of Victoria's immunisation schedule, which details the vaccines given at each age
• a link to access your Australian Immunisation Record online – this replaces the need for families to keep track of vaccinations, and is now required under federal legislation to access child care and to receive family assistance payments
• automated reminders, so you don't have to worry about missing a scheduled immunisation.
