FamilyInSight 



















Welcome to the Family InSight web site 


Family InSight is a volunteer-based organisation supporting families with young children in the Hunter Valley region of New South Wales in Australia. To find out more, click on the 'About Us' tab above or click here. 


Family InSight supports families with at least one child under the age of five in the following areas: 


West Lake Macquarie, Maitland, Cessnock, Port Stephens and the Upper Hunter. We can also provide support from an Early Childhood Coordinator and an Aboriginal Coordinator. Please click here to see a map of our service area. Please note that Family InSight does not cover Newcastle, North and East Lake Macquarie. 


Volunteers visit families for 2 hours a week to encourage families in their parenting experiences. Volunteers provide support in a range of ways including having a 'cuppa' and a chat, playing with the children, attending playgroups, helping families connect to the local community and much more.
