Child nutrition support without the travel
Western Australia covers a huge area. For many families, accessing specialist appointments can mean significant travel, time away from work or school and a lot of planning.
Telehealth gives you another option. You can meet with a paediatric dietitian from home while still receiving support that is centred on your child’s growth, nutrition, feeding patterns and family routines.
What a paediatric dietitian can help your child with
Some families come with one clear question. Others have several issues happening at once. We work out what matters most and where nutrition support can make a practical difference.
Fussy & restricted eating
Help when familiar foods are limited, new foods are difficult or your child’s diet is becoming narrower.
Growth & appetite
Review of intake and growth when appetite, weight gain or overall nutrition is becoming a concern.
Gut health
Practical nutrition strategies for constipation, abdominal discomfort and ongoing digestive concerns.
Allergies & intolerances
Support to replace excluded foods and maintain nutrition while managing dietary restrictions.
Making nutrition work with the foods your child already eats
A child does not need to eat every food group perfectly for a dietitian appointment to be useful.
We can review the foods your child currently accepts, look for likely nutrition gaps and identify practical ways to improve energy, protein, iron, calcium, fibre or food variety without changing everything at once.
When eating feels harder than it should
Feeding can become exhausting when a child rejects most new foods, relies on a very small number of preferred foods or becomes upset around meals.
We look beyond the food itself and consider sensory preferences, predictability, routines, past experiences and nutrition needs. The aim is to support progress without turning meals into another source of pressure.

What happens in an online paediatric dietitian appointment
We start with what is concerning you now. From there, your dietitian reviews the information that matters for your child and helps you identify the next steps that are realistic for your family.
1
Understand the concern
We talk through your child’s eating, feeding history, growth, symptoms, routines and current challenges.
2
Identify what matters most
Your dietitian works out where nutrition support is most useful and which changes can wait.
3
Build a practical plan
You leave with clear strategies based on your child’s actual foods, routines and family circumstances.
Support for neurodivergent children
Neurodivergent children may have strong sensory preferences, a need for predictability or very specific food routines.
Our approach is responsive and sensory-aware. We work with your child’s strengths and current food preferences rather than relying on pressure or rigid expectations.

Paediatric Dietitian Perth & WA FAQs
Do you have a paediatric dietitian clinic in Perth?
Our Perth and Western Australia paediatric dietitian service is provided online. Our physical clinic locations are in Queensland, while telehealth allows WA families to access our paediatric dietitian team from home.
Can families in regional or remote WA book?
Yes. Online appointments are available throughout Western Australia, including regional and remote communities where access to paediatric dietetic services may otherwise require significant travel.
Can you help if my child is not gaining weight well?
Yes. Your dietitian can review available growth information alongside appetite, intake, eating patterns and health history, then discuss strategies to support nutrition and growth where appropriate.
What if my child refuses most new foods?
We support children with limited food variety, selective eating and food refusal. The approach depends on what is contributing and may include nutrition review, sensory-aware strategies and practical changes to mealtime routines.
Can you help with constipation and tummy problems?
Yes. Our paediatric dietitians can provide nutrition support for constipation and other ongoing gut concerns, while also considering your child’s food preferences and overall nutrition needs.
Does my child need to be on screen for the whole appointment?
No. The appointment can be adapted to your child’s age and needs. Parents or carers may complete some or all of the discussion when that is more appropriate.
Can you communicate with our local health team?
Yes. With consent, your dietitian can communicate with your child’s GP, paediatrician, occupational therapist, speech pathologist or other health professionals when shared care is useful.
