Baby Airway Clinic

Our Baby Airway Clinic provides assessment and support for babies and young children experiencing concerns with their breathing, feeding or growth. The clinic is run by Nurse Practitioner Amy, who takes the time to look at your baby’s symptoms and overall wellbeing, including their breathing, feeding and growth.

The clinic may be appropriate for babies with noisy breathing, snoring, stridor, feeding difficulties, slow weight gain or ongoing airway concerns following a stay in the NICU. Where clinically indicated, your baby may also have overnight oxygen-level monitoring at home, allowing their breathing to be assessed while they sleep in their own cot.

Following the assessment, results can be reviewed by a respiratory and sleep physician, helping to provide families with a clear understanding of their baby’s breathing and feeding concerns and any recommended next steps.

A referral from your GP or paediatrician is required to attend the Baby Airway Clinic.
