Fussy Baby Fix
How to calm a fussy baby
Consultation of your baby and family providing solutions for common ‘fussy’ behaviours. Each family will receive a tailored, unique plan centered around you and your baby’s needs.
This includes issues such as:
Feeding
Every baby is different. There is no hard and fast rule on how to best feed your baby. Our team can help with assistance in breast feeding, bottle feeding, mix feeding, waning from naso-gastric tube feeds and oral health related issues which may impact a baby’s ability to feed.
Our team will also advise how regularly your baby should be feeding based on their individual circumstance such as weight, age and growth.
Sleeping and self settling
Sleeping is crucial for a healthy, happy baby and a healthy, happy family. Most babies can be taught good habits. Babies who can self-settle sleep longer durations.
Our team can help you achieve this through sleep, feeding and soothing strategies.
Ongoing issues
There are many issues that might affect your baby’s overall wellbeing. Ranging from common, easily treatable issues to longer term issues which may need more attention.
Our team can help you get to the bottom of these and advise on the best course of action going forward.
Crying
Babies communicate through crying. Sometimes this can be unbearable if we can’t understand what is wrong or how to soothe them.
Our team can help you determine what is causing the distress and provide a plan on how to address this.
Introduction of solids
This is an important step of your infant’s development. Our team can assist you with a step-by-step guide on what foods to introduce at what time, management of allergies and any trouble shooting with certain foods along the way.
Our team is passionate about optimising nutrition of infants and children to maximise their growth and developmental potential.
