Ensuring Dedicated Care for You and Your Little One 🤱🤱🤱👩‍⚕️👩‍⚕️👩‍⚕️

To provide the in-depth support every mom and baby dyad deserves, Dr. Joanne Gallardo dedicates 30 to 90 minutes to every consultation. Because these sessions are comprehensive and highly personalized, we utilize a specific time-slot system.

To help us serve everyone effectively, please keep the following in mind:

Punctuality is Key: Your appointment is reserved exclusively for you. If you arrive late, we will still need to end on time to respect the next family’s slot. Walk-ins are only accomodated after all booked patients have been served.

Confirm Your Visit: Please confirm your attendance promptly. This ensures that unused slots can be offered to other families waiting for timely support.

Communicate: In case of any mishaps on scheduling, tardiness beyond 30 minutes or unexpected cancellations, please do message us promptly. We reserve the right to move your schedule to the last available slot of the same day or another consultation date.

Thank you for helping us provide the best care possible! 🩺✨

Maybe, I just asked the wrong question! 😂

Hi Baby!🥰 Titig ka lang kay Tita Doc!😁

Studies in developmental psychology have found that babies tend to look longer at faces adults rate as more attractive and lose interest more quickly in faces rated as less attractive.

Researchers say this suggests basic preferences for certain facial features may appear very early in human development.

Good day, bakit kaya nababawasan ang reviews ko? Dati 24 reviews ito...
Dahil diyan, palegit check naman sa mga mommies and patients ko na naging mga katipunera na sa breastfeeding simula nang dumalaw sa amin!

Launching this thread for questions regarding baby care, breastfeeding and the like. I may answer via a separate post or reel.

Only rule: It should be a general question and not a personal/consultation question. No emergency questions here, please!

Again, general not personal question please!

This is why I tell moms that if they want to maintain or increase their milk supply, feed the baby even at night.

Did you know that night feedings play an integral role in overall milk supply?

Text reads, Did you know that you produce the most milk at night?It can be tempting to avoid night feeding or have someone else feed the baby so you can get sleep. It can help to remember that prolactin levels are higher at night and the hormonal response to baby suckling is even stronger than during the day. That's a winning combination for maximizing milk production.

Huwag muna dalhin ang mga kids sa indoor playgrounds. Notorious lalo na mga ball pit.

Nakapagtala ang Quezon City ng labing pitong (17) kaso ng Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease (HFMD) mula Enero 1 hanggang 15 ngayong taon, ayon sa datos ng city epidemiology surveillance. Sampu (10) sa mga nagpositibo ay mga batang edad tatlong (3) taong gulang pababa.

Pinakamataas ang bilang ng kaso sa District 2 na may pitong (7) naitalang pasyente, habang sinundan ito ng District 6 na may apat (4) na kaso. Paalala ng mga awtoridad, mabilis makahawa ang HFMD kaya mahalagang pairalin ang tamang kalinisan at regular na paghuhugas ng kamay upang maprotektahan ang mga bata laban sa sakit.

Here’s the reason why we cannot reply to your messages, especially on Sundays.😊

For those who do not know, both Ms Yasmin and I are worship leaders in our respective churches and we always love to put God first. A blessed start to the coming week. 😊
