Working with both children and adults.
Welcome to our paediatric dietitian services, dedicated to supporting the nutritional needs and well-being of children. Our team of qualified dietitians specializes in working with children and is committed to providing personalized guidance and support tailored to their unique dietary requirements. During your initial appointment, we will spend approximately 45 minutes to 1 hour engaging in a comprehensive conversation to understand your child’s specific nutritional needs and challenges.
In this session, our paediatric dietitian will conduct a detailed assessment of your child’s dietary habits, preferences, and any specific dietary restrictions or concerns they may have. We will also discuss their growth and development goals, whether it’s managing a medical condition, promoting healthy weight gain or loss, or optimizing overall nutrition for optimal well-being. Our goal is to gain
a thorough understanding of your child’s current dietary patterns and any factors that may impact their nutritional status.
Based on this assessment, our paediatric dietitian will work closely with you and your child to develop a personalized nutrition plan that meets their specific needs and is suitable for their age and developmental stage. This may involve meal planning, nutrient recommendations, age-appropriate food choices, and practical strategies to encourage healthy eating habits. Our approach is focused on providing education and support to empower both you and your child to make informed choices and establish a positive and balanced relationship with food.
