Your child's lifelong health needs gut-level attention

Our targeted program is specifically designed for parents working through chronic conditions, providing them with personalized support to help their child achieve optimal gut health. The Child's gut program includes two gut tests and four consultations with a microbiome specialist, providing you with a high level of personalized support throughout your journey. Additional kits can be purchased at a discounted rate of $169/kit.

The Tiny+ Membership, on the other hand, is ideal for parents whose children are not suffering from any chronic conditions and who want to take a proactive approach to optimize their child's gut health, setting the foundation for lifelong health. The membership includes two gut microbiome tests and one consult call per year. Additional kits can be purchased at a discounted rate of $169/kit.

Our six-month targeted program is designed to help you address the root cause of your gut imbalances, offering a comprehensive approach to gut health. Here's how it compares to single-kit offerings:

• ‍Child's Gut Program: Includes two gut tests and four consult calls with a microbiome specialist, providing you with personalized support throughout your journey. Additional kits can be purchased at a discounted rate of $169/kit.
• ‍Child Gut Baseline Assessment: Includes one gut microbiome test and one consult call with a microbiome specialist. The Gut Baseline Assessment is a great starting point if you're unsure if a program or membership is right for you. Your microbiome specialist can recommend the best next steps during your consultation call.‍
• Child Gut Health Test: A standalone gut test without a consult call. This option is suitable if you already have a deep understanding of gut health. However, we find that parents who consult with our microbiome specialists derive the most value from their Tiny Health test.

As part of the Child's Gut Program, you have access to additional kits for any member of your family at the discounted rate of $169/kit.

The six-month duration of the program is based on the time it typically takes to work through a chronic condition effectively. Here's a breakdown of what to expect during the six months:

• Month 1: You’ll have an introductory consultation with your microbiome specialist and take the first gut test. It takes about 3-4 weeks to receive the results of your microbiome test.
• ‍Month 2-3: You’ll receive the results of your first test and meet with your microbiome specialist to establish your personalized Action Plan. You’ll work on implementing the recommended Action Plan for the next 4-6 weeks.
• ‍Month 4: You’ll check in with your microbiome specialist to see how the actions implemented are progressing and take the second gut microbiome test.
• ‍Month 5-6: You’ll receive the results of the second gut test and meet with your specialist to see how the changes you’ve implemented have shifted the gut microbiome. Your specialist will fine tune your personalized Action Plan.

After the initial six months, your microbiome specialist will help you determine the best next steps. The Program auto-renews for an additional six months. Your specialist may recommend additional support with a continuation of the program. Alternatively, they may recommend that you graduate and join the Tiny+ Membership after the initial six month period. The Membership offers ongoing support and resources to help maintain your child's gut health in the long term.

A microbiome test can provide useful insights on how the gut microbiome may be contributing to the symptoms you’re experiencing.  Chances are, if your child is experiencing symptoms, there may be an underlying gut imbalance that is contributing to those symptoms, and understanding the gut can help to see if any imbalances are present and how they may be triggering a condition.

In short, it’s never too late to test. The sooner you have a baseline sample, the better.

Keep in mind that the gut is still developing until the age of 3 - 5 years old. Up until this point, you have an opportunity to check in on your little one’s gut health and make changes, if needed.

For older children, testing can reveal a lot about their gut health. Including levels of hidden gut inflammation, levels of bacteria that make anti-inflammatory short-chain fatty acids, microbiome diversity, and biomarkers for immune health and fiber digestion.

Even if your child’s gut has reached adult-maturity, there’s still an opportunity to influence their dietary, supplement needs, and lifestyle choices.
