Wattletree Health Group provides exceptional home nursing services in Bulleen (postcode 3105), an inner eastern suburb in the City of Manningham, about 11km north-east of Melbourne’s CBD on the Yarra River. Our experienced, AHPRA-registered nurses support clients in Bulleen and neighbouring Templestowe Lower, Heidelberg West, Balwyn North and Doncaster, whether the need is short-term after a hospital stay or ongoing, long-term clinical care.
Bulleen’s name derives from Bolin Bolin — a Wurundjeri name for a significant billabong on the Yarra River — and the suburb name was even proposed for the whole of Manningham when the city was created in 1994, before the council chose the name of the main road instead. The Bolin Bolin Billabong Reserve and Bulleen Park on the Yarra are the suburb’s defining green spaces, and the Manningham Road strip has been the commercial spine of the area for generations. The suburb also hosts the Bulleen Library at Bulleen Plaza, one of Manningham’s three library branches.
