We are able to assist infants, children and adolescents by conducting a nutrition assessment aimed at determining the best course of action for your child and family. We provide nutrition support for little ones (or not-so-little ones!) while taking into account the whole family perspective.

We provide expert advice and support through:

• Education on management of gastrointestinal issues and disorders such as Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Constipation and Diarrhoea.
• Vegan, vegetarian or other lifestyle modifications
