A Possums Clinic provides trusted help with the early years issues that feel unmanageable, urgent or persistent for families. That includes baby and toddler sleep, breastfeeding and feeding challenges, crying and fussing, infant development concerns, and your own mental health and wellbeing as a parent. Possums Clinics are for families who want personalised, one-on-one support quickly, with care grounded in Neuroprotective Developmental Care (NDC/Possums) that avoids unnecessary labels and treatments. Where a doctor or other appropriately qualified clinician is part of the team, they can also assess health concerns and provide any necessary diagnosis, medication management, or clinical treatment.
A Possums Clinic can be a fast path to clarity and relief when early life care is hard. At a Possums Clinic, you can find immediate answers and treatment tailored to your own unique situation. Parents choose Possums Clinics because of the peace of mind that comes with knowing all practitioners there are NDC (Possums) Accredited and so their approach will be genuinely evidence-based, clinically effective and designed to avoid and prevent unnecessary or costly interventions.Clinics may also include NDC Accredited doctors or other suitably qualified clinicians who can provide medical oversight and health assessments alongside NDC-based care.
In your consultation, the NDC (Possums) Practitioner will take a detailed picture of you, your baby, your routines, and what is worrying or affecting you the most. They will explain what is driving the sleep, feeding, crying, development, or wellbeing challenges, then work with you on changes that are most likely to help quickly. You leave with a clear, practical plan and options for follow up support. For breastfeeding issues, parents often find immediate relief and improvement.
If you see an NDC Accredited (Possums) doctor or another appropriately qualified clinician, they will also check for underlying health issues and address them when required.
Possibly, yes. Starting a licensed Possums Clinic gives you immediate recognisability and credibility in your community, lifting trust, referrals, and patient flow from day one. It can be a lifesaver while you are getting established, and a serious growth accelerator once you are stable.
If you would like to discuss starting a Possums Clinic, email our General Manager Tom at tom@possums.org with your location, profession, the NDC Accreditation status of you and any clinicians who will work at the practice, along with any other details that feel relevant. We will review it and set up a meeting to explore fit and possible next steps.
We would love to hear from you and build together.
