Kristina M. Haebich is a Pediatric Neurologist based in Parkville, VIC, at 50 Flemington Rd. She looks after babies, kids and teens who need extra support when it comes to the brain, nerves and development. Neurology can feel confusing at first, so the main goal is to explain things in plain language and help families work out what to do next.
Her clinic supports children with neurodevelopment and nervous system conditions. This includes neurofibromatosis, like Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1), as well as Schwannomatosis. These conditions can affect different parts of the body, and symptoms can change over time. In many cases, kids also need regular checks to keep an eye on how they’re going and to spot issues early.
Kristina also helps with attention and behaviour concerns, including Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). For some families, ADHD shows up as trouble with focus, restless energy, or impulsive behaviour at school or home. At times, it can overlap with other developmental differences, so care often involves a steady, practical plan rather than one single fix.
Another part of her work is Autism Spectrum Disorder support. Autism can look different from child to child. Some kids may need help with communication, routines, or sensory comfort. Others may manage well day to day but still need guidance when things get harder. Kristina’s approach is calm and grounded, focusing on what’s happening for the child right now and what will make daily life easier.
For younger children, she also cares for premature infants. Early birth can bring extra monitoring needs, especially when it comes to development and the nervous system. This is often a time when families feel worried and want answers. Kristina aims to guide those conversations carefully, so families know what the next steps are and what signs to watch for.
Because each child’s situation is different, appointments may include reviewing symptoms, looking at how development is tracking, and discussing options for follow-up. When more support is needed, care is coordinated with other health professionals involved in a child’s overall wellbeing.
There isn’t a lot of public detail listed about education, publications, or clinical trials here. Still, the focus in the clinic stays the same: clear explanations, steady follow-up, and support for children and families dealing with complex neurologic and developmental issues.
