Parents and Carers Room
College will be providing a designated space for attendees bringing babies and infants to the ASM. This private space will be available from Friday 15 May until end of sessions on Monday 18 May.
The room will be located near session rooms and will include
- Live stream of main plenary sessions from Saturday to Monday. All attendees will have access post-event to recordings of all sessions in the main scientific program.
- Seating, including lounges and single seats
- A workspace with chairs and a power supply
- Tea, coffee and water inside the room
- A refrigerator and microwave for food storage and preparation
- Floor space for play and activities
- Wipes, tissues, hand towels, hand sanitiser products and rubbish bins.
Other information
Attendees are welcome to bring any toys, entertainment or additional tech. Parents or carers joining us onsite who are not registrants will be invited to collect a day pass from our registration desk so they are able to move around the conference space. There will be an additional table for changing purposes, however, fully appointed change rooms are available in the parent’s rooms near Goldfields Cafe. Whilst we can ensure this space is private, we cannot make it secure, so belongings left in the room will be the responsibility of the owners.
Catering will be provided in the main exhibition space at each of the breaks and attendees are welcome to join all delegates at this time to enjoy refreshments.
What do you need to do?
This space will be provided free of charge and no booking is required.

Acknowledgement of Country
Built on the banks of the Birrarung (Yarra River), College acknowledges the Traditional Owners of Narrm, the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung people of the Kulin Nation where the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre (MCEC) now stands. We pay our respects to their Elders past and present, and to Elders of all First Nations communities that visit MCEC. We recognise the ongoing significance of the Birrarung to Traditional Owners as a life source and a meeting place for millennia and seek to honour this long-standing tradition of building community and exchanging ideas on these lands.
