Every child is unique, and so is every family.
Our integrative pediatric care offers personalized support for your child’s physical, emotional, and developmental health, while also guiding and empowering you as a parent. We’re here to partner with you, providing gentle, evidence-informed care and clear, compassionate guidance through every stage of childhood.
We support children’s growth with a focus on prevention, nourishment, and emotional resilience. From nutrition and sleep to development and immunity, our care helps build strong, healthy foundations from infancy through adolescence.
When your child is sick or uncomfortable, we offer gentle, effective therapies to ease symptoms and support the body’s natural healing process. Whether it’s a rash, stomach bug, or frequent infections, we offer thoughtful guidance and effective, natural care.
We’re here to support not just your child, but you as a caregiver. Through education, collaborative care plans, and natural home remedies, we help you feel confident in the daily choices that shape your child’s health.
We believe children deserve care that honors their natural resilience, while also addressing the real challenges of growing up. Our approach blends the best of natural medicine with current scientific understanding, offering families thoughtful, personalized options that complement conventional pediatric care.
We do not replace your child’s pediatrician. Instead, we act as an adjunctive provider working alongside your family’s primary care team to support your values, your intuition, and your child’s individual needs.
We work with children and families on a wide range of concerns, including:
Chronic Digestive Issues: constipation, diarrhea, reflux, stomach aches
Skin Concerns: eczema, rashes, chronic irritation, chronic diaper rash
Food Sensitivities and Dietary support
Immune System Support: frequent illnesses, chronic or slow recovery from infections
Sleep Struggles
Emotional and Behavioral Concerns: anxiety, overwhelm, sensory sensitivities
Focus and Attention Challenges: ADD/ADHD
Gentle Care for Illness: coughs, fevers, viral infections, ear infections
Preventive Care and Wellness Support: through life’s transitions
We are not pediatricians and do not serve as a substitute for pediatric care. While Naturopathic Doctors are trained as primary care providers, at Cove, we work in an adjunctive role. This means we offer complementary care that supports, but does not replace, your child’s primary medical provider.
Families are required to have a pediatrician or primary care provider for:
Physical exams and well-child checks
Medication management and prescriptions
Receive vaccinations
Emergency or urgent medical concerns
We are here to fill the gaps, especially for naturally minded parents and those seeking additional support, second opinions, or more time to explore the “why” behind your child’s health concerns.
No. We work alongside your pediatrician to provide complementary care. We do not offer urgent care, manage ongoing medications, or administer vaccines.
However, we recognize that navigating childhood health decisions can feel overwhelming. We're here to offer clear, compassionate guidance and help you feel empowered in your choices, while always respecting your family's values.
We offer integrative well-child visits that focus on nutrition, development, sleep, immunity, and emotional health. These visits complement, but do not replace your child’s physical exams and routine pediatric visits.
We are also happy to provide sport’s physicals for young athletes.
We focus on using the most gentle and effective treatments first. This includes approaches that support the body’s healing without unnecessary intervention. This might include nutrition and lifestyle recommendations, herbal medicine, targeted supplements, home remedies, or mind-body tools.
When appropriate, we aim to address underlying causes and ease symptoms before moving to more aggressive treatments like antibiotics or steroids. These medications absolutely have a place when needed, and we work to ensure that any path taken is thoughtful, stepwise, and in alignment with your child’s overall health.
Our care is always individualized and collaborative, supporting your child’s resilience while also respecting your comfort as a parent.
Absolutely. Many parents have questions about vaccinations, and we are happy to provide space for thoughtful, respectful conversations.
Many parents have questions about vaccine timing, ingredients, spacing, or how to support their child’s immune system before and after vaccinations. Our goal is to create a space where you feel safe, heard, and never judged. We strive not to persuade, but to inform and help you feel educated in your decisions. We support families in a variety of care choices and always encourage collaboration with your child’s pediatrician.
