Naturopathic Paediatric Care
What is Naturopathic Paediatric Care?
Dr Ytsma helps support our naturopathic paediatric care here at Friday Health and enjoys working with infants, children, and teens using up to date evidence-informed approaches. As a mother of 3, her approach is collaborative and family-centred, empowering parents with practical tools to support their child’s health at home. Every child is treated as unique, with care tailored to their age, stage, and individual needs.
Treatment Process
Paediatric naturopathic care begins with a thorough intake to understand your child’s health history, current concerns, nutrition, sleep, and lifestyle. We create a personalized treatment plan using safe, age-appropriate therapies such as nutrition guidance, supplements, herbal medicine, and lifestyle support. Education is a key part of each visit—we take time to explain recommendations so parents feel confident and informed. Ongoing follow-ups allow us to adjust care as your child grows and their needs change.
We direct bill most insurance providers.
