Paediatric Dietetics

Paediatric Dietitians provide practical food, diet and nutrition advice for children.  Dietetic and Nutrition advice, and treatment, is often required for children with food allergies and intolerance, sensitivity to foods, fussy eating, overeating, ADHD, or children avoiding all or certain types of foods.

Food behaviours or allergies to foods are often stressful for the child, family and their care givers.  Our Dietitians are passionate about making a real difference to children and lessening the impact that food can have on their day to day lives.  When food behaviours are well managed, childhood can still be a safe, secure, fun and memorable part of life.

Tyack Health's aim is for children and their families to enjoy food and a healthy lifestyle, despite often serious food restrictions.

We treat each child as a unique individual.  We understand that children respond differently to food allergies, challenges, interventions and treatments.   Treatment is most effective when a close relationship to the child (parent/guardian) works with the Paediatric Dietitian so that over time any challenges and changes can be dealt with quickly and effectively.

Tyack Health also houses a team of specialist Paediatric professionals that can assist where recommended.  Including; Paediatric Doctors, Paediatric Psychologists, Paediatric Speech Therapists, and Paediatric Occupational Therapists.
