When a genetic condition runs in the family, it is natural to wonder whether your child may have inherited it too.

The answer is not always obvious from symptoms alone. Family history, your child’s health and development, and sometimes genetic testing can all help provide a clearer picture. Your paediatrician can guide you towards appropriate testing or genetic counselling when needed.

Starting solids is an exciting little milestone, but there is no need to rush it. Most babies are ready at around six months, when they can sit upright with good head control and begin showing an interest in food.

Start slowly with soft, age-appropriate foods and allow your baby time to explore new tastes and textures. Every baby develops at their own pace, so speak to your paediatrician if you are unsure whether yours is ready.

Today, our team is navigating the quiet spaces left behind by someone who wasn’t just a teammate, but family. They brought warmth into every room, carried us through the hardest days with steady kindness, and reminded us why community matters so much in the work we do.

Walking into our space without their presence feels surreal and deeply painful. We are holding onto the laughter we shared, the dedication they brought every single day, and the immense love they gave so freely.

To our dear friend and colleague: thank you for leaving an indelible mark on our hearts. You will be missed beyond what words can hold.

Holding their loved ones close in our thoughts, and holding each other a little closer today. 🤍🕊️

Breast Cancer Awareness Month is an opportunity to encourage the parents, caregivers and women in our communities to make their own health a priority too.

Life can become very focused on looking after little ones, but your wellbeing matters. Be breast aware, attend recommended screenings and speak to your healthcare provider if you notice any changes that concern you.

Caring for yourself is part of caring for your family.

ADHD can look different from one child to another. Some children may struggle with focus, while others may find it difficult to sit still, manage impulses or organise everyday tasks.

With understanding, the right support and a little patience, children with ADHD can be helped to build on their strengths and navigate the areas they find challenging. If you have concerns about your child’s attention, behaviour or development, it is worth starting a conversation with your paediatrician.

Spring means warmer days, blooming flowers… and, for some children, more asthma triggers. 🌼

Pollen, dust and changing weather can sometimes make asthma symptoms such as coughing, wheezing or shortness of breath more noticeable. If your child’s symptoms are changing or becoming harder to manage, it may be time for a check-up.

Good dental habits can start long before the first adult tooth appears. 🦷

Encourage your child to brush twice a day, keep sugary snacks and drinks to a minimum, and make dental care part of their everyday routine. Small habits now can help support healthy teeth as they grow.

For paediatric care or guidance, get in touch with Dr Anisa Vahed.

Sleep plays an important role in your child’s growth, mood, learning and overall wellbeing. 😴

A consistent bedtime routine, a calm sleep environment and age-appropriate sleep times can all help build healthier sleep habits. If your little one regularly struggles to fall asleep, wakes frequently or seems unusually tired during the day, speak to your paediatrician.

After my spring clean this morning.
My phone was loaded with messages from parents. Having babies and children are expensive especially if their growing way too fast.

🌸So this inspired my sharing the love🌸

Come drop off your donations or let me know of any items that you think another mom would find a use for and we’ll connect with other local moms!
So grateful for this village and the opportunity to give new life to these little treasures.

Let’s be honest, it takes a village ♥️
