The Sick Sense - Childhood sickness recognition, management and first aid workshops

The Sick Sense Offerings ✨

Calling all parents, caregivers, and those raising the next generation—this is for YOU!

I'm Illy, your local Paediatric Nurse Consultant with a wealth of experience across Sydney Children's networks and the Hunter New England region. I created The Sick Sense to close the gap in our community by equipping YOU with that 'Sick Sense' to handle childhood sickness like a pro.

Our hands-on workshops are held in two stunning locations in Lake Macquarie and Newcastle:
📍 Warners Bay - The Australian Children's Chiropractic Centre
📍 Newcastle - The Station in The Locker Room

These aren't your typical "sit-in-a-classroom" workshops. Both spaces are cozy, welcoming, and designed to keep you relaxed while you learn. Lunch is always on us, and there’s a local cafe nearby for all your fresh coffee needs! ☕️

Our face-to-face workshops cover a range of essential topics:
✅ Allergies & Choking
✅ Respiratory Illness Management
✅ Fevers & Dehydration
✅ Common Injuries & Poisons
✅ First Aid Strategies
✅ Rashes & Recognizing Serious Illness
✅ Communicating with Healthcare Professionals
…And SO much more!

Baby-friendly and breastfeeding-friendly (for babies 6 months and under) and yes, lunch is included!

Corporate packages are also available for workplaces looking to empower their teams.

You'll walk away with a Sick Sense tool bag packed with goodies and the confidence to make informed decisions when sickness strikes.

To keep each workshop intimate, spaces are limited per workshop — Book Now and let’s take this journey together! I can't wait to meet you! 💚
