Our team are committed and passionate about meeting the vision of WHA.

WHA is proud to have a dedicated and enthusiastic team of staff working in our Canberra/Ngunnawal office, which we share with our partner organisation, Children’s Healthcare Australasia.   

The services we offer members would not be possible without the dedication, energy and inspiration of the WHA staff. We have a diverse and skilful team of people who give their all to support this organization to achieve its mission – spreading excellence & innovations in healthcare for women, newborns and their families. 

Please don’t hesitate to contact our friendly staff on 02 6185 0325 if we can be of assistance.
