Natalie Silove is a Paediatrician based in Westmead, NSW, Australia. She works with children and families across a range of day-to-day health and development needs, especially when behaviour, learning, and thinking can feel a bit out of sync.
In many cases, families come in when there are worries about how a child is communicating, coping with changes, or managing big feelings. Natalie looks at the full picture, including what’s happening at home, at school, and in social situations. She understands that every child is different, and the best next steps can take time to work out.
Her work often includes conditions like Autism Spectrum Disorder, fragile X syndrome, and things such as ADHD. She also sees children with OCD, and with repetitive movements or patterns that can get hard to redirect. When these concerns show up, it can affect sleep, school work, friendships, and family routines. Natalie helps families sort through what’s going on and plan support that fits the child’s real life.
Over time, she’s learned that good care isn’t just about making a label. It’s about practical help. That can mean guiding families on behaviour strategies, supporting routines, and working out what might help a child feel calmer or more focused. At times, it also means being careful with how different supports and services are used together, so everyone stays on the same page.
Being a paediatrician, Natalie is used to balancing medical checks with development questions. She asks clear, simple questions and listens to what parents and carers notice. She also understands that school reports, teacher feedback, and changes at different ages can all matter. The goal is to build a plan that feels workable, not overwhelming.
Natalie is trained as a paediatrician and works in a child-focused way. Her approach is steady and grounded, with room for questions and follow-up as things develop. If new concerns come up, she can help families adjust the plan rather than starting from scratch.
For research and clinical trials, there isn’t specific public detail available here. But the care she provides stays current with what’s known in paediatrics and development, and she aims to support families with clear, practical next steps.
Appointments in Westmead can be a good starting point when you want a calm, child-centred assessment and support plan, especially for complex development and behaviour concerns.
