FAQ
We’ve got your answers.
Our registered, licensed dietitians work with your child and family to create practical, everyday strategies for meals, snacks, and fun physical activity that support healthy growth and BMI — without putting your child on a weight-loss diet.
Yes. Parents and guardians are involved because children’s eating and activity habits are shaped at home. By coaching parents, we ensure healthy routines, guidance, and support continue beyond the session, helping children develop sustainable habits.
Sessions are tailored to your child’s needs. We provide ongoing support until healthy eating and activity habits are established.
