Paediatric Diabetes Nutrition & Optimisation Programme
Structured paediatric dietetic support for parents who want a deeper understanding of the factors that affect their child’s glucose levels and to feel more confident in managing diabetes day-to-day, including real-life challenges like parties, complex meals, school, sports and activity.
This programme goes beyond a single appointment, providing practical, individualised strategies grounded in paediatric diabetes practice.
✅ Who this is for:
This programme is particularly suited to families who:
• notice unpredictable glucose patterns
• want structured support beyond one appointment
• would like a detailed review of meals, routines, and activity
• want greater confidence managing daily diabetes decisions
• are ready to implement realistic, sustainable changes
🔍 What’s included:
1. Pre-consultation assessment
After you book you will receive:
• a 7-day food and glucose record
• a detailed background questionnaire
• instructions for next steps and we will schedule your consultations.
2. 1:1 Initial Paediatric Dietetic Consultation (60 minutes)
A personalised session tailored to your child’s needs. Depending on agreed priorities, this may include:
• detailed nutrition assessment
• review of glucose patterns (CGM/ Pump)
• support with carbohydrate counting (including Level 3/ Advanced approaches where appropriate)
• everyday diabetes management (school, activity, routines)
• realistic nutrition and lifestyle goal setting
Not all areas are covered in one session – the focus is agreed together.
Please book your first appointment on a date that is at least 1 week after booking, so you can complete a food and glucose diary.
The following appointment will be booked when we meet online.
3. In-depth pattern analysis & professional review
After your appointment, I will review your child’s records and emerging patterns. This ensures guidance is based on real-life data and practical observations – not generic advice.
4. Personalised written action plan
You’ll receive a clear written summary highlighting:
• key observations
• agreed priorities
• practical next steps
• areas to monitor / review together
5. Follow-up review consultation (30 minutes)
We review:
• what is working well
• ongoing challenges
• areas that may benefit from further review
🌟 Why this programme is different
• deeper pattern review
• structured training & follow-through
• time to assess real-life responses
• individualised refinement
⚠️ Important note
All guidance is individualised and based on the information available at the time of consultation. This programme complements – and does not replace – your child’s diabetes medical team.
