Our Pediatric Dieticians Can Help

Nutrition plays a crucial role in your child’s development. Proper nutrition greatly impacts all areas of development including both brains and bodies. Without adequate nutrition your child cannot reach their fullest potential in and out of the classroom. Poor eating habits can negatively impair a child?s lifelong health as well as their ability to attend, focus and learn.

Our clinically trained pediatric dieticians can provide you with answers, information and support. Following an assessment our pediatric dietician can create a food plan that works for you and your family. She will provide practical nutritional advice and suggestions that can impact your child’s development and success in and out of the home and classroom.
