This care encompasses the needs of the mother and baby and includes the Well Child/Tamariki Ora schedule of care until handover to the Well Child/Tamariki Ora provider at four to six weeks.

The Schedule outlines the assessment, intervention, and health education activities for each of the eight universal core contacts delivered in the Well Child programme, to children aged between four to six weeks, and five years and their families.
The Schedule should be read in conjunction with the Well Child/Tamariki Ora Framework (2010) and National Schedule Handbook (2002).
