GERD: Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
GERD, or Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease, is a chronic digestive disorder where stomach acid flows back into the esophagus, causing heartburn, chest pain, and discomfort. Unlike occasional acid reflux, GERD occurs frequently and can lead to serious health issues if left untreated.

Picky Eating
Picky eating refers to a selective eating behavior where children refuse to eat certain foods or are unwilling to try new ones. This can lead to a limited diet, focusing on familiar or preferred textures, tastes, or colors. While common in young children as part of normal development, extreme picky eating may affect nutrition and growth. Strategies like gradual exposure to new foods, positive reinforcement, and involving kids in meal prep can help manage picky eating.

Food Allergies
Food allergies occur when the immune system mistakenly identifies certain foods as harmful, triggering a reaction. Symptoms can range from mild (hives, itching, stomach pain) to severe (anaphylaxis, which can be life-threatening). Diagnosis often includes skin tests, blood tests, or supervised food challenges under medical supervision.

Colic
Caring for a colicky baby can be overwhelming, but our expert pediatric nutritionists and dietitians are here to help. We work with families to identify potential dietary triggers, whether through breastfeeding adjustments or formula recommendations, and offer strategies to ease digestive discomfort. Our personalized approach focuses on optimizing feeding techniques, reducing gas, and ensuring your baby’s nutritional needs are met.

Intro to Solids
Introducing solid foods is an exciting milestone, but it can also be overwhelming. Our pediatric nutritionists guide you through this transition, ensuring your baby receives the right nutrients at the right time. We’ll help you identify signs of readiness, choose nutrient-dense first foods, and create a feeding schedule that promotes healthy eating habits.

Baby-Led Weaning
Baby-Led Weaning (BLW) is an approach to introducing solid foods where babies feed themselves finger foods instead of being spoon-fed purees. Typically starting around 6 months, BLW encourages infants to explore different textures, tastes, and develop fine motor skills. Our pediatric nutritionists can guide you through safe food choices, choking prevention tips, and creating balanced, nutritious meals to support your baby’s growth while building independence at mealtime.

Weight Management
Our pediatric nutritionists provide personalized plans to support healthy growth through balanced nutrition and active lifestyles. We focus on fostering positive eating habits, portion control, and fun physical activities to help kids achieve and maintain a healthy weight naturally.
