Migrant women, particularly those of culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, are at risk of experiencing perinatal mental health issues. Objective: The aim was to identify the online Australian information that Mandarin, Hindi and Arabic‐speaking migrant women may access, either self‐sourced or provided by health professionals, during the perinatal period. Methods: After consulting subject matter experts and consumers to develop search terms, two searches were undertaken to identify relevant websites. Additionally, semistructured interviews were conducted with five organisations to explore website content development and evaluation. Data were analysed using content analysis and reflexive thematic analysis. Results: Importantly, only six websites across Australia were identified as meeting criteria to be included. They offered 7 to 296 pages in 1 to 131 non‐English languages, focusing primarily on antenatal mental health (67%), with less content on postnatal care (28%) and birth (5%), covering topics like anxiety, depression and family violence. Usability scores ranged from 82.3% to 88.2%; actionability was 60%–80%. Content development was challenging due to high translation costs and limited community co‐design. Conclusion: Future efforts should prioritise co‐designing resources with diverse cultural and linguistic communities to enhance inclusivity, accessibility and relevance. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
