As a pediatrician, I often get asked about the best way to talk to kids about sensitive topics like sexuality. It's a big responsibility, and sometimes it can feel overwhelming.

That's why I'm excited to share this amazing opportunity with you: "Beyond the Birds and the Bees" with Ms. Joy Katigbak and her daughter, Nica.

As a mom of five, I know firsthand how important it is to have open and honest conversations with our kids. This talk will provide valuable insights and practical tips to help you navigate these conversations with confidence and grace.

Join us on December 7th from 8 AM to 12 PM at Sacred Heart Center, Cebu City.

Let's empower ourselves to raise healthy, happy, and informed children.

Signs of malnutrition

Good nutrition is important for healthy growth and development. Making sure you are informed on how to care for your child’s nutrition will prevent health concerns such as being underweight, being too short as well as being overweight and obese. These problems can lead to consequences that affect learning and activity which are important for your child.
