Safe, structured support for families trialling elimination diets.

We help you identify food triggers while protecting your child’s nutrition, growth, and wellbeing.

Making elimination diets safer and less stressful.

Elimination diets can feel overwhelming for families — especially when you’re unsure which foods might be causing symptoms. At Cubs Paediatric Dietetics, we provide clear, step-by-step guidance to help you trial food exclusions safely, without compromising your child’s nutrition or growth. Our approach focuses on making elimination diets as safe and manageable as possible through a structured, evidence-based process. We ensure your child’s diet remains balanced and nutritious, monitor growth, symptoms, and long-term wellbeing, and work closely with your paediatrician or immunologist to provide joined-up, comprehensive care.

Common concerns we can help with:

  • Suspected food allergies or intolerances
  • Symptoms like bloating, diarrhoea, constipation or eczema
  • Identifying food triggers for reflux, gut discomfort or skin issues
  • Planning balanced diets while avoiding allergens
  • Guiding safe reintroduction of foods
  • Preventing nutrient deficiencies during elimination periods
