Neighborhood Nutrition : Our Services : Children

The number of children diagnosed with diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and obesity is increasing at an alarming rate. Dealing with these issues in the pediatric population requires a different approach than would be taken with an adult. Young children are not yet capable of the responsibilities of buying and preparing food or supervising their own activities; their nutritional issues involve the whole family. Working with a registered dietitian who is experienced with pediatric issues and who can incorporate the whole family is important to making healthy changes.

We can work with you and your child on a variety of topics including:

Creating a healthy eating and physical activity plan
Preparing healthy meals and snacks
Choosing the best foods when on-the-go

We can also work with you and your child on more specific issues including:

Failure to Thrive or poor weight gain
Nutritional management of diabetes and obesity
Age-specific feeding guidelines

A child's future health is shaped by the habits they form now. Help your child put their best foot forward for the future by creating a healthy lifestyle today.
