Parents in Goulburn who wish to vaccinate their children will need to wait a further two weeks to book an appointment.
A spokesperson from Blooms The Chemist Mittagong Marketplace said vaccinations would take place in two weeks, but also noted that "things could change."
However, parents in the Southern Highlands won't be able to make an appointment.
A Blooms the Chemist Mittagong spokesperson said they would not be vaccinating children between 5 - 11 years old for the foreseeable future. The chemist is currently fully booked until February.
Children will receive two doses of the Pfizer vaccine, eight weeks apart.
To book their children's vaccination at their local participating Blooms The Chemist pharmacy, parents are invited to utilise the online booking platform to secure their appointment to receive both doses of the paediatric vaccination.
Adults may also book their Pfizer, Moderna and AstraZeneca vaccines through the booking portal.
Blooms The Chemist encourages people who may have any doubts or concerns about the suitability of COVID-19 vaccines for their child's health situation to seek guidance from their medical practitioner, trusted healthcare professional, or visit the government website at www.health.gov.au.
