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.

🔍 What’s included:

​

1. Pre-consultation assessment

​

After you book you will receive:

​

• a detailed background questionnaire

• instructions for next steps and for scheduling your consultations.

• a 7-day food and glucose record that will be reviewed before your consultation (pre-appointment time).

​

2. 1:1 Initial Paediatric Dietetic Consultation (60 – 90 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 and Advanced bolus approaches where appropriate)

• everyday diabetes management (school, activity, routines)

• ​diabetes & exercise management 

• 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 follow up appointment will be booked after your initial consultation.

​

3. In-depth pattern analysis & professional review

​

I will review your child’s emerging patterns (according to available CGM/pump uploads),

including observations from the food diary. 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​

​

⚠️ Important note

The follow up appointment must be booked within 6 weeks of the initial consultation. 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.
