Police are appealing for help to find a woman and two children who've gone missing from Sydney's Westmead Hospital and could be headed to the Hunter.

26-year-old Sarah Cooper was last seen leaving the hospital on Sunday with her two young children, Louis and Ivar, aged four and one.

There are concerns for the children's welfare - they've been receiving treatment following a house fire and may still need medical attention.

Police say Sarah and the children could be in Newcastle or Taree.
