Naturopathic Doctor for The Family with Kiddos


Are you unsure if natural treatments can help your kids? Don’t even doubt it for a second! Some of the most profound results come with our pediatric population as they react beautifully to natural therapies. We provide safe and non-invasive treatment options and love teaching parents how to help keep their kids healthy at home. We see the most long-lasting benefits when we get to see the parents and children. When everyone is on the same page helping one another, everyone wins!

Nourish Medical Center takes a holistic approach to pediatric care that is transforming the way we think about our children's health and development. We’re passionate about offering an alternative to traditional healthcare that focuses on the whole child, integrating the principles of functional medicine for kids, natural pediatrics, and tailored wellness strategies that support optimal development from pregnancy through adolescence.

The Naturopathic Pediatric Difference

Naturopathic pediatrics is not just about addressing illnesses or developmental issues as they arise; it's about creating a foundation of health that supports your child's growth, well-being, and overall vitality. From the first well child visit, we go beyond the conventional checks of height, weight, and physical milestones. We delve deeper into your child's health by evaluating gut health, diet, sleep patterns, behavior, and cognitive development, ensuring every aspect of their growth is supported naturally.

Our approach is rooted in the belief that preventive care and natural remedies can often provide the most effective treatment. We address common childhood concerns such as constipation and eczema with natural constipation treatments and natural eczema treatments, prioritizing interventions that work in harmony with your child's body. Only when necessary do we turn to conventional medicines, like antibiotics, ensuring that we've explored all avenues to support your child's health in the most natural way possible.

A Tailored Approach to Vaccination

Understanding that families have diverse views and preferences when it comes to vaccination, we offer comprehensive vaccine consults. For those who decide to vaccinate, we develop custom alternative vaccine schedules that respect your choices while ensuring your child's immune system is supported. Our immune support and detox protocols around vaccines are designed to minimize side effects and maximize benefits, showing our support for all families, regardless of their vaccination status.

Well Child Guides: Empowering Parents Between Visits

To empower parents and caregivers in supporting their child's health between check-ups, we provide well child guides. These resources are crafted to offer practical advice and natural strategies to promote optimal development, addressing diet, sleep, behavior, and more. Our goal is to partner with you in creating a healthy, vibrant future for your child!

Natural Remedies for Common Childhood Concerns

We understand that childhood is fraught with common health concerns, from the minor to the more complex. By focusing on natural remedies first, we aim to address issues such as constipation, eczema, and more in ways that are gentle yet effective, minimizing the need for harsh medications and supporting your child's body in healing itself.

Why I became a doctor?

I wanted to be a pediatrician when I was a little girl but didn’t think I was good enough at math and science. I followed a different educational path until I had my own health issues in my early 20’s and came across a naturopathic doctor. I made an appointment to see her and signed up for classes to complete my pre-med requirements knowing this was the medicine for me! I have had a variety of life experiences that have given me the ability to relate firsthand to patient’s health journeys. I bring a unique combination of empathy and advanced clinical knowledge as well as an ability to meet every patient where they are on their individual health journey.

Why I became a doctor?

From childhood, my dream was to be a pediatrician. I'd play dress-up in a tiny white coat, clutching my toy stethoscope, and even watched "A Baby Story" in my free time. Discovering Naturopathic Medicine perfectly aligned with my desire to build meaningful patient relationships and make a lasting impact. Once I became a patient of Dr. Stewart (yes, the same doctor that owns Nourish) and saw her approach to patient care, I knew that the medical education she received was what I wanted! My fascination with autoimmune and chronic diseases in medical school underscored the importance of prevention, fueling my passion for working with children to prevent future diseases and support healthy development from the start.
