The average child will eat 15 pounds of cereal in a year.

Children from infancy to adolescence face many nutrition related challenges that may require the guidance of a dietitian. We are eager to work with parents, caregivers and the whole family to determine change in the child’s food and eating issues.

Our specialists listen to the child or parents’ concerns and provide the tools and strategies required to address their needs. These concerns include gastrointestinal disorders, failure to thrive, food allergies, picky eaters, eating disorders, weight management and diabetes. We provide meal planning for weight gain and nutritional restoration, weight loss and weight maintenance. Nutrition is vital to your child’s health, development, growth and general well-being, and we aim to help all children thrive and grow.
