All mothers were required to take their babies and young children to the clinic for their weekly check-up. The children were weighed and examined and their progress recorded. The mother was issued with a tin of Sunshine Powdered Milk, feeding bottle and teats, Pentavite and Hypol for the baby, Lactogen and Acta-Vite for herself. The weekly visits continued until the child reached school age.
