About this course

Specialist Childcare Pathway prepares advanced caregivers for newborn-focused and higher-complexity homes -- inspired by INA Newborn Care Specialist competency areas and inclusive practice -- while drawing a bright line around clinical scope. You will learn NCS-style newborn foundations, safe sleep and feeding support, special-needs awareness, mild-illness observation, medication protocol discipline, and how Pukena verifies nursing/midwifery licences before Specialist clinical language or custom-quote placements. This course is awareness and professionalisation -- not a medical licence.
