Best Pediatrics Hospital in India

We understand that when it comes to choosing the right healthcare provider for your little one, trust is very crucial. Extending the trust we have built with moms over the nine months of their pregnancy journey, Cloudnine’s Department of Pediatrics provides a wide range of outpatient and inpatient services to children right from pre-term babies up to the age of 12. 

The department provides comprehensive paediatric services like Neonatal ICU (NICU), Paediatric ICU (PICU) and General Paediatrics including Immunisation Services, Paediatric Orthopaedics, Paediatric Neurology, Paediatric Pulmonology, Paediatric ENT, Paediatric Ophthalmology, Paediatric Urology, Paediatric Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery, Paediatric Genetics, Paediatric Orthodontics, Paediatric Allergy, Paediatric Dermatology, Paediatric Endocrinology, Paediatric Infectious Diseases, Developmental Paediatrics, Child Psychology & Psychiatry.

With dedicated play areas, friendly doctors and attractive consultant rooms, our paediatric wards make kids feel comfortable and welcome.

A distinguishing feature of neonatal and paediatric care at Cloudnine Hospitals is the newborn screening, specifically the newborn hearing test and Guthrie test. Fulfilling our aim to provide international standards of paediatric care, we are the only medical facility in the country to provide these tests. The Guthrie test, which is mandatory in most developed countries, is done to identify any enzymatic or biochemical disorder in an otherwise normal-looking baby and proactively save the baby from any harm.

At Cloudnine, we value the trust that parents show in us and therefore adopt the best paediatric care model to improve the healthcare of infants, children and adolescents.

What is WEANING?|When to introduce SOLID FOOD? | Dr. Mahishma K
"Parent is introducing new foods to the child at 6 months of age. So as everybody knows and that is what we follow regularly till 6 months of age. Breastfeeding is the only food that the child will take not even water is given to child it's only milk. So after 6 months of age we start introducing foods to the child. That is called as weaning. However this beaning does not mean that we stop breast milk. Along with breast milk we'll start introducing new foods to the child. Breastfeeding can be continued till 2 years of age. So foods which can be given to the child at this age is we usually try to keep it simple introduce one item per time so that you don't introduce multiple items to the child. Their gut has to get used to the new foods. So usually we say to give one item preferably start with rice based foods like in Telugu we commonly say it as huku. So rice based cereal it can be made at home or you get a packaged once preferably homemade is very healthy for the child and it will have less side effects too the consistency should be soft initially. Then with growing age we'll make it a semi solid then finger foods and then they can take hard foods like chapati. So the idea is to make the child eat whatever we as a family eat by one year of age but at a softer consistency. So along with the cereal based once you start with rice based cereals then you can go for multi- grain or add millets like ragi wheat or you can add wheat but preferably first start with rice and then go to wheat and then other millets like ragi. The second thing is by 8 to 9 months of age please start introducing the child with finger foods like cut vegetables which are boiled so that they can pick up the food and eat also non vegetarians if they want want to start with non-veg food. You can start introducing egg yolk at 8 months 6 months or 7 months of age and then start introducing egg white by 8 to 9 months of age. Non-vegetarian food like meat also can be introduced by 9 to 12 months of age. However it has to be shredded soft with no bones make sure there are no bones at all you have to double check that and then give it at a softer consistency they can be given water after 6 months of age. But no nuts to be given because usually they're allergic and these are small things which can get stuck in their throat. So we advise not to give any aerated drinks or nuts to the child at this age the idea again is to keep the child eating family food by one year of age by step by step taking and by giving one food at a time or not introducing all the foods in one week we start introducing the child to foods which we eat"

Frequently Asked Questions & Answers

Who is a paediatrician?

A paediatrician is a doctor who specialises in caring for infants, children and young adults.

At what age should a child be referred to a paediatrician?

In India, children up to 12 or 13 years are registered under Paediatric service and should consult a paediatrician for various conditions.

How often should my child see the paediatrician?

Your child should not only see the paediatrician when he/she is sick but also at regular intervals of time for routine checkups. This gives the paediatrician an opportunity to keep track of your child’s physical and mental growth and development and to detect problems through screening tests.

Why does my child need to be vaccinated?

Immunizations are a series of shots given to children at different ages to help ward off serious, and potentially fatal diseases. Vaccines protect your child against illnesses like polio, measles, tetanus and so on.

Is there a Covid vaccine for children in India?

India has approved two homegrown Covid vaccines for children under the age of 12 - Biological E's COVID-19 vaccine Corbevax for children aged 5 to12 and Bharat Biotech's Covaxin for 6 to 12-year olds.

What is the immunisation schedule for a child?

For details on The Baby Immunisation Schedule/Vaccination Chart in India under the Universal Immunisation Programme (UIP), click here

What is the Guthrie test?

The Guthrie test detects any enzymatic or biochemical disorder in an otherwise normal-looking baby, and this test ensures the baby is proactively saved from any damage. This test is mandatory in developed countries.

​​Why does my child suck his/her fingers?

It is normal for infants aged 4–5 months to suck their fingers. It is their way of exploring their surroundings. For older children, the sucking may be a result of familiarity or used as a way to self-comfort. Should parents find that their grown-up child is still sucking on their fingers, they should provide a distraction for the sucking instead of being strict with them.

How can I encourage my child to speak?

Children around the age of 3 begin to speak normally. You can assist your child in developing their language and communication skills by reading them storybooks and by speaking with them regularly.

At what age should I be concerned if my child is not walking?

Usually, between 6 and 13 months, your baby begins to crawl. Between 9 and 12 months, they will pull themselves up. And between 8 and 18 months, they will walk for the first time. So if they are not walking at all by 18 months and not walking steadily by age 2, you should consult a paediatrician.
