What advice do you have for expats having a baby in Perth?
We asked expat moms who gave birth in Perth about their experiences and advice they have for other moms to be. They said...
"Being an expat in Perth when having a baby can be an exciting, yet challenging, experience. Make sure to familiarize yourself with the healthcare system and any necessary vaccinations. If you plan to have your baby at a public hospital, create a birth plan so your doctor and midwives know your preferences. Make sure that you carry your passport and any other important documentation with you when you go to the hospital. Additionally, take some time to explore the city of Perth and find the best baby-friendly activities to help your little one adjust to its new home. Lastly, build a network of supportive parents via online groups and meetups for some much-needed guidance and advice," commented one expat who made the move to Perth, Australia, Australia.
