Ensuring the health and happiness of your children is a top priority for every parent. At St. Ives Hospital, our pediatric experts provide comprehensive care to support your child’s development. Here, we share essential tips to keep your children healthy and thriving.
Nutrition: Building Strong Foundations
A balanced diet is crucial for your child’s growth and development. Include a variety of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and proteins in their meals. Limit sugary snacks and drinks, and encourage regular hydration.
Regular Check-Ups and Vaccinations
Routine check-ups and vaccinations are vital for preventing illnesses and monitoring development. Schedule regular appointments with our pediatricians to keep your child’s health on track.
Physical Activity: Keeping Active and Fit
Encourage your children to engage in at least 60 minutes of physical activity daily. Activities like playing outside, swimming, or joining sports teams help build strong muscles, improve coordination, and boost overall health.
Mental and Emotional Well-being
Children’s mental health is as important as their physical health. Create a supportive environment where your child feels safe to express their emotions. Encourage open communication and seek professional help if needed.
