At Pediatricz Now, we understand that proper nutrition and healthy weight management are essential for your child’s overall health and well-being. Our pediatricians and healthcare team are committed to helping your child develop healthy eating habits that will last a lifetime.
We recognize that every child has unique nutritional needs based on their age, growth, and activity level. This is why we offer personalized nutrition counseling and weight management services tailored to your child’s specific requirements. Our approach focuses on promoting a balanced diet, encouraging regular physical activity, and fostering a positive relationship with food.
During your child’s nutrition assessment, we’ll evaluate their current eating habits, growth patterns, and any specific health concerns. We’ll work with you and your child to identify areas for improvement. Then we’ll develop an achievable healthy eating plan. It will take into account your family’s lifestyle, cultural preferences, and dietary restrictions.
Our pediatric nutrition services may include guidance on portion sizes and smart snacking. They cover balanced meal planning and strategies for encouraging picky eaters to try new foods. We also provide education on reading nutrition labels, making healthy choices when dining out, and navigating the challenges of school lunches and peer pressure.
