In the Stage 5 NSW curriculum, Child Studies explores the broad range of social, environmental, genetic and cultural factors that influence prenatal development and a child’s sense of wellbeing and belonging between 0 and 8 years of age. The Newborn Care unit within the Child Studies subject has students identifying the physical characteristics of a newborn, along with the tests and special care options available to the child immediately after birth. Students develop an understanding of ways to satisfy the needs of a newborn in order to promote their safety and wellbeing, as well as exploring the impact of bringing a newborn into a family.
