Ask-the-Experts: Talk Directly to North Shore ‘kid’ Experts

We want to share something exciting that we’ve been working on here at North Shore Kids - our Ask-an-Expert panel. Parenthood can be a wild ride, no matter whether it’s your first child or third or more, and one ridden with self-doubt and questions - so many questions! - about child health, development and more.  We’ve probably all been there - gone down the rabbit hole of online forums and articles searching for answers and growing more frightened by every consumed paragraph, or listened to well-meaning but confusing and contradictory advice from relatives and friends.  

 

Well, we over here at North Shore Kids think we can collectively do better, and here’s where our Ask-an-Expert panel comes in.  We are fortunate to live in an amazing community with terrific experts in all things ‘kids’ from general health to dentistry to diet to physical development - the list goes on and on. 

 

We’ve put together an initial list of experts who will answer any 'kid' related questions you may have - really anything!

 

Please meet Jenn Messina, a Registered Dietician; Dr. Zina Alkafaji, a pediatric dentist; and Donna Pratico-Lehto, a Public Health nurse.  We are working on adding a few more specialists - do let us know if you have your favourites.
