July 2025: Introducing Wellness on the Way, an 8-Week Healthy Lifestyle Program for DMC Pediatric Patients Ages 6–11

Has your child’s provider recommended a proactive approach to prevent weight-related health issues? Wellness on the Way is here to help!

This fun, supportive program is designed especially for children ages 6–11 who are ready to build healthy habits for life. Led by our expert care team—Sarah Murai, MD; Victoria Overko, MS, LDN, RDN; and Ashley Ferm, LCMHC—this 8-week group class empowers kids and families to make lasting, positive lifestyle changes together.

In this weekly program, we will:

  • Teach kids about healthy eating in an interactive and engaging way
  • Encourage movement and physical activity that’s fun and personalized
  • Help families create realistic, long-term lifestyle changes
  • Support and improve self-esteem and emotional well-being
  • Foster a positive relationship with food

Next session begins: September 10th in Derry

Enrollment is by provider referral only.
