About Us

Moms and Kids Health is your source for information about building healthy families from the inside out, consistent with Chiropractic principles of proactive care. We bring you content on topics that matter. We believe in learning from expert professionals and honoring expert parents.

We believe that good health starts on the inside, and that healthy people are best prepared to handle whatever stressors come at them. We believe that there is a valid place for outside-in medical/sick care intervention, however that should be considered a short-term solution vs. a long-term approach to a healthy life.

We recognize that information is available from many sources. We also know that much of it is scattered and not all that relatable or usable by typical moms. Our goal is to provide you content that you can actually put to good use in your busy lives.

We’re not just for moms. We welcome all who are interested in healthy living and helping themselves and others reach their full God-given potential.

Meet Dr. Todd Defayette, DC

Moms and Kids Health Co-Founder | AAC Family Wellness Centers Co-Owner | Kiro Kids Founder

Dr. Todd Defayette, a pediatric chiropractic expert in New York’s Capital Region, co-founded Moms and Kids Health in 2020. Dr. D, as he is affectionately known by his patients, has a passion for treating families and helping children meet their God-given potential. He is a 1998 magna cum laude graduate of New York Chiropractic College. Dr. D sees dozens of children each week in his practice in Schenectady, NY.

He specializes in neurological-based nervous system and spine care. He helps children with a non-invasive approach that can produce positive outcomes relative to allergies, ADHD, digestive issues, headaches, and neuro developmental spectrum diagnosis from sensory issues to full blown autism.

Children are unfortunately getting sicker and sicker, and are taking more and more medications. The Moms and Kids Health paradigm provides moms with a less-invasive and comprehensive health care approach. Moms and Kids Health attempts to get to the cause of a child’s health challenge and not just cover up the symptoms. Once your child is functioning optimally, this proactive natural approach is easy to implement to keep her/him at their optimal God given potential.
