Children's Blood Tests — Gentle, Caring, a Little Bit Heroic
Worried about bringing your child for a blood test? We understand completely — and we've built our children's service around making it calm, gentle and even a little fun. Every child who visits leaves a Brave Little Hero.
We make it gentle
A blood test doesn't have to be scary. Here's how we take the worry out of it:
Numbing cream, ready before you arrive — with simple picture instructions to apply at home, so your child barely feels a thing.
Meet our Blood Test Superheroes — your child isn't seeing a stranger in a white coat, but a friendly face who's here to help.
They choose their colours — their own tourniquet colour and a fun plaster, small choices that help them feel in control.
A gentle, expert touch — fine paediatric needles and a calm, patient approach, including for children who are nervous, needle-shy or on the autistic spectrum.
Siblings welcome, and home visits available if that's more comfortable.
And when it's done, every child receives a Brave Little Hero certificate — so they leave remembering how brave they were, not the needle.
Two answers, one small visit
Most parents arrive with one of two worries: "They're tired, pale, off their food — is something missing?" or "The tummy aches, the eczema — is it something they're eating?"
The reassuring news is we can look at both, often from a single gentle draw. Is it a deficiency, or is it diet? Because your results are reviewed by a qualified nutritional therapist, you don't just get numbers — you get answers, and what to do next.
Currently available in Bristol, Swindon and Preston, with more locations coming soon.
The essentials — iron, Vitamin D, anaemia, thyroid and coeliac screening.
Deficiency and diet together — our bundles cover both in one visit, one needle.

How it works
Get in touch and tell us what's worrying you — no GP referral needed. We prepare you before your visit, numbing cream included, then it's a quick, caring draw at one of our locations or in your own home. Results follow within 2–5 working days, with a written GP report explained to you by a nutritional therapist.
Your child's sample is analysed in an accredited London laboratory, with results in the reference ranges your GP recognises.
