Kaumarabhritya, the pediatric specialty is one of the eight main branches of Ayurveda. The horizon of Kaumarabhritya, dealing with child health care is vast and challenging.

According to Kasyapa Samhita, Kaumarabhritya is the most important branch, as the other divisions play their role only after the child matures into an adult.

The child should be both physically and mentally capable, to be an active participant of the society. Child health and nutrition is always a prime focus of attention for every parent.
