Provide Natural Foods for your Children

Avoid processed foods for your children, because as we all know that they are often full of sugar, sodium, unhealthy fats, and calories.

Avoid making meals for your children using the unhealthy stuff. Feed your children with fiber-rich foods like beans and leafy greens, fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, poultry, fresh fish, etc. and limit the foods which contain added sugar and saturated, trans fats, etc.

4 Year Old Children’s Health Checks

We encourage all 4 year old children to have a Healthy Kids Check. This check ensures your child is fit and ready for school and will assist in identifying any lifestyle risk factors, development problems and give parents advice on a range of appropriate issues. 4 year old immunization can be included at this visit or done separately.

Make a list of any questions or concerns you have before your visit and bring along your child’s Personal Health Record book (the red book), to record the assessment.
