Deakin, Australian Capital Territory, Australia Canberra Women & Babies Full time $30,000 - $45,000 per year

Be the Warm Welcome at the Heart of Women's Care

At Canberra Women & Babies, we believe every woman deserves a space where she feels seen, heard, and genuinely cared for — from pregnancy to postnatal care, and beyond.

We're a boutique, heart-led Obstetrics, Midwifery & Gynaecology practice in Deakin, and we're looking for a Receptionist who is warm, calm, and passionate about creating a space where women feel supported from the very first moment.

About the Role

Whether you're seeking the consistency of a full-time position or the flexibility of casual hours, this is a people-focused role where kindness, calm, and care are at the heart of everything we do.

As our receptionist, you're not just answering phones or booking appointments — you're often the very first voice or face our clients encounter. You'll be the steady, friendly presence that helps each client feel relaxed, valued, and truly cared for from the very beginning of their journey with us.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Welcoming clients with warmth and empathy (and maybe a comforting cup of chamomile tea)
  • Managing appointments and practitioner schedules
  • Working closely with our midwives and doctors to keep each day running smoothly
  • Communicating with clients in person, over the phone, and via email to support their care journey
  • Processing payments and Medicare claims
  • Ensuring client records are accurate and up to date
  • Maintaining a calm and beautiful front-of-house space
  • Supporting the clinical team with admin and everyday magic

About You

You believe the client experience starts long before an appointment — with every phone call, every email, and every warm welcome. You're organised, compassionate, and thrive in environments where your work makes a meaningful difference.

You'll bring:

A genuine passion for women's health and wellbeing

A calm, friendly presence — even on the busiest days

Clear, warm communication and next-level organisational skills

Tech confidence — if you've used Gentu or similar, that's a bonus

Experience in a medical or healthcare setting (preferred but not essential)

Why You'll Love Working With Us

  • Join a supportive, values-led team that truly cares about women's health and well-being
  • Work in a purpose-designed, calm and beautiful space in leafy Deakin (with free on-site parking)
  • Choose between full-time or casual hours
  • Access ongoing training and opportunities to grow
  • Enjoy complimentary styling sessions with a professional stylist (yes, really)
  • Earn $30–$45 per hour, depending on your experience — plus performance-based bonuses

Ready to Join Us?

If you're someone who loves creating calm, order, and meaningful connections — and you're passionate about women's health — we'd love to hear from you.

Please send us your CV and a brief note telling us:


• A little about yourself


• Whether you're interested in a full-time or casual role


• Why you'd be a great addition to our team at Canberra Women & Babies.

Applications close: Monday 20th October

Start date: As soon as you're ready
