KidTLC, previously known as SvelteKids, is the kids' version of SvelteLife. It was created by Douglas M. Cluff, M.D. with the assistance of health care professionals at North Texas Health Care Associates - Family Medicine/Pediatrics. It was developed for kids from ages 6-18, and provides children, parents, and other adult leaders with all the tools they need to help kids achieve a healthy lifestyle (and weight, if needed), for life.

KidTLC is a 12-week Behavior Modification Program that teaches healthy lifestyle (eating and physical activity) changes. It also has an optional weight management component. It is usually taught as part of another program in which kids meet regularly, but may be taught by anyone, in any environment. Currently, studies are under way to determine its effectiveness in after-school programs. Check back periodically for updates and the findings of our studies.

KidTLC is currently available for your child through:

  • Select after-school programs through the Irving, Texas YMCA
  • Making an appointment with Dr. Cluff
  • Purchasing the full KidTLC Program for your organization (for commercial purposes - see below)
