Eczema and your child
We know that caring for a child (or children) with eczema can be challenging. If your child has been recently diagnosed with eczema, dealing with it will still be new to you and you may be looking for more information and support.
If you're the parent or carer of a child with long standing eczema, we hope this site will reinforce some of what you already know, as well as provide you with further information, practical tips and valuable support. It is important that you understand eczema and how it is treated, so that you can help your child to understand their condition too.
