Job Description of a Pediatric Chiropractor


I have been a Pediatric Chiropractor for the past 15 years, I am a mother of 3 boys and I LOVE everyday of it. Oftern we will have some unique experience dealing with the toddler, kids babies , and parents that make each day unique and amazing. Patients comment often they are not sure how I deal with all the chaos each day, but honestly I love every minute of it. Seeing these little tiny humans grow, learn, develop and blossom into little people is a daily blessing. Seeing how their little minds work, and grow is a miracle. Here is a little spoof on my daily life at our clinic Family First Chiropractic and Wellness:

1.      Must know how to baby and toddler wrangle/wrestle while adjusting them often in awkward positions on the floor or table
2.      Be able to speak toddle-ease – aka toddler language fluently- the garbled words make sense to them!
3.      Can adjust while stepping on toys, trains, trucks, sippy cups, crackers, treats , dollies and 4 (or more)children playing etc at your feet
4.      Be comfortable with wiping noses, fingers, hands  and other areas of children other than mine
5.      I often do not leave work with clean clothes or hair- I often have baby or toddler “schmutz” somewhere on my clothing
6.      Has a ‘Bachelor of Science Degree’ in toddler negotiations
7.      Has a massive supplies of stickers in all cartoon categories- including Frozen, Sponge Bob, Deigo, Dora, Thomas the train, Minions, Cars, Princess and many many more
8.      Know all of the Disney movies by heart- and are able to quote them
9.      Know every superhero, caped avenger and turtle out there!
10.  Know and name all the Disney princess characters

12.  Answer to many different names- Dr. Bones, Dr. Tickles, Dr. Popcorn, Dr. Wiggles and giggles
13.  Know how to adjust the sleep, poop, and attitude ‘buttons’
