Meet the founder

Base Kids was founded by Dr Claire Gibbons, a mother of three young children and Paediatrician.

Claire specialises in child development and behavioural paediatrics. With over 15 years of clinical experience, Claire is dedicated to helping children thrive through a child-focused, holistic approach to healthcare, and supporting families through the complexities of early childhood nutrition and development.

Claire’s approach combines evidence-based medicine with a deep understanding of family dynamics, sensory needs, and developmental milestones.

Claire is committed to empowering children and families with the knowledge and tools they need to build lifelong healthy eating habits, using food supplements as required to support children’s growth and wellbeing.

Our goal at BASE Kids is to create child-friendly food supplements with flavour profiles that are as neutral tasting as possible, that can be added to any food or drink, while also containing sound, evidence-based doses of vitamins, minerals and fibre.
