Pediatric Nutrition
Children of all ages can have issues with food and nutrition, affecting their development and even their risk for certain conditions.
Allison Schulman is a Registered Dietitian who can help your child transition to a healthier, well-balanced diet based on their needs.
Our pediatric nutrition services in New York, NY, can foster a positive attitude towards food and establish good nutrition for life...
Who Can
a Pediatric Nutritionist Help?
Several types of children can benefit from our services:
Food Allergies
Our registered dietitian and nutritionist in New York can help pinpoint which foods are causing allergy symptoms so we know which foods to recommend you avoid feeding your child. Then, we can determine if nutritional supplements are needed to meet your child's nutrition needs. Finally, we can design food plans that will keep your child satisfied and healthy.
Serious Medical Conditions
Children who visit our office and have serious medical conditions like diabetes, obesity, digestive disorders, and eating disorders require specialized counseling and customized nutritional plans to help them maintain or improve their health. In many cases, improved nutrition can help our pediatric patients manage these disorders and enjoy better health.
Athletes
Some athletes, particularly those in their teens, may need to gain or lose weight to qualify for certain matches or improve their ability to play sports. Our registered dietitian and nutritionist in New York can help teens make healthy choices so they can gain or lose weight in a safe manner.
Weight Management
Staying within the recommended healthy weight range can be a challenge for children, teens, and adults in New York and across the country. Allison can makeover your pantry, take you shopping, and set you up with a cooking coach so you have healthy and delicious choices available for all meals and snacks.
Establish a Positive Relationship with Food
We can help toddlers, children, and teens establish a better relationship with and understanding of food so they can stick to our custom nutrition plan and change their eating habits for good. For our pediatric patients in New York, this can contribute to better health for life.

I really like our interaction, we have already met 3 times. Ms Schulman is very professional and thorough, with excellent bedside manner, as she is a great listener and really makes an effort to know and understand her patients lifestyles and health issues. It is a pleasure to meet with her every month and learn from her the importance of leading a healthy life by eating healthy and exercising regularly. What I like most is that she has a long-term vision, insists on moderation and does not impose strict regimens that will eventually backfire.

Newborns and infants have specific needs and feeding issues. If you are concerned that your baby is not getting sufficient nutrition from breastfeeding, we can recommend formula options. If your baby is ready to transition from breastfeeding to pureed or solid foods, we can ease the transition and help our New York patients choose options that are as healthy and natural as possible for their infant.

Toddlers can be finicky and opinionated, particularly when it comes to feeding time. Sometimes, it can be all too easy to give into your toddler's desires and give them the foods they want to eat. However, it is important to encourage healthy eating habits at this age to assist children in getting the proper nutrition for their growth and development, and in being open to a wider range of healthy food options.
