Pediatric Nutrition

Proper nutrition is important at any stage of life. Because your child has different nutritional needs than an adult, you can count on Bronson Children's Hospital’s staff of registered dietitians to tailor a plan specifically designed for your child’s age and health needs.

We are here for your child whether he or she is in the hospital or is coming from home. You can turn to our experienced pediatric nutrition staff to provide assessment and counseling from birth through adolescence. Your child’s growth will be evaluated and we’ll take a closer look at his or her daily intake to create an individualized plan of care.
