Providing a Professional, Safe, Caring and Healthy Place to Stay.
With over 40 years experience in providing health care and accommodation services to womens and children from through Far North, we are truely the best place to stay.
With no birthing facilities in remote Cape York and Western Queensland pregnant women must come to Cairns around four to six weeks before the birth of their baby. These women must leave their homes and families just when family and community support is most needed.
Which is where Mookai Rosie and our staff step in to provide a home away from home for these women while in Cairns.
Inspired by our strong Aboriginal women founders, Mookai Rosie continues to service our remote Far North communities by providing a place of care for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women and children with top quality accommodation, food and health advice.
Good nutrition, women’s reproductive health, pre and post-natal care, social and emotional wellbeing and environmental health are all issues our expert staff assist our clients with.

For Individuals
As a individual or a family we understand that it can often be too hard to hand over sums of money, but you can still support the important work we do at Mookai Rosie Bi-Bayan. Giving a gift or donating some of your skills is an awesome way to support what we do. One of the simplest ways to show your support is to share what we do across social media. Remember it takes more than one person to make change.
For Corporations
To tranform the lives of other sometimes it takes the helping hand of others. We rely on much of the budgets delivered to us from our Government funding bodies. But like all not-for-profits we want to be sustainable and this is where you can help. Through a simple donation or purchase of one our supporter gifts you become a part of the Mookai family and a part of the change.
