Baby and Child Clinic

We specialise in baby & child health-from newborn through to teens. As a parent of two boys and having treated them and other children in my clinic, I have seen and treated a vast number of childhood illnesses — from whooping cough, eczema, asthma and UTIs, to ADHD, colic and allergies/intolerances. The first hand experience has taught me that using a gentle blend of TLC, diet, lifestyle, herb treatments and phytonutrients, depending on the individual needs is mostly a very successful approach. And the great thing is that my medicine can be used in most cases alongside orthodox drugs, which may be important and necessary for your child — and in many cases assist in counteracting drug side-effect.

Little people are my favourite patients. What can give more satisfaction than knowing you are able to support him or her in eating well, feeling well and being well for the rest of their life

I look forward to seeing you and your kids in the clinic soon

As parents or caregivers we are in the privileged position of playing an important part in helping our babies and children reach their full potential — physically and mentally. One way in which we can do this is by providing them with the best possible health and wellness care including diet — macro and micro nutrients, and lifestyle.

The implications of not doing so can be great; research indicates that if infants do not get the correct nutritional requirements early in life it may result in lowered immunity leading to allergies and infections and behavioural disorders. Additionally, poor general health can lead to ear infections, reduced learning ability, depression and more.

The most common infant and childhood complaints we treat include:

Digestion: — reflux, colic, constipation, diarrhoea Skin conditions: acne, eczema Immunity: Allergies & intolerances — Asthma, Glue Ear, Rhinitis, Eczema, Infections: Glue Ear, Flu, Colds, Sinusitis, Vaccination reactions Eating disorders — picky eaters, weight management Behavioural Disorders — ADD/ADHD, Insomnia, stress/anxiety, bed wetting, Learning difficulties
