Virtual Care
Need Pediatric Care now? You’ve landed in the right place.
At Tiny Pediatrics, we believe your child deserves
the best care possible. Urgent Care shouldn’t mean
long waits, crowded lobbies, or a Doctor who
doesn’t know your child. That’s why we’ve
Reimagined Pediatric Care as it should be:
Calm, affordable ($50) and available
Virtually when you need it-8am-8pm.
Because fevers don’t care what day it is and neither do we.
How does it work?
Tiny Pediatrics provides Urgent Care in the comfort of your home Virtually.
We give you direct access to our trusted Pediatrician for urgent concerns
on the weekends without the wait. No receptionist.
No cold exam table. Just answers when you need them most.
Tiny Pediatrics exists so you don’t have to guess or Google at 9 p.m.
What is Virtual Care?
Our Pediatrician uses phone and video to evaluate your child.
We’re confident that having an Expert Pediatrician that listens closely to
your concerns, is the most important thing you can do when your child is sick.
Because comfort and clarity go a long way when your kid’s sick.
Wait… Is Virtual Care Safe?
We hear this a lot—and the answer is yes, for the right things.
Fever, coughs and colds, pink eye, rashes, asthma, flu, vomiting, and
diarrhea can be safely cared for Virtually. If your choice is
between a crowded Urgent Care staffed by non-Pediatric providers, or a
Board Certified Pediatrician who listens closely and is experienced in Virtual Care,
the latter is probably the best option.
Because no kid ever felt better after two hours in a waiting room.
How long will we wait to be seen?
Because we keep our practice small, we’re able to call you within the hour.
That’s the heart of the Tiny Pediatrics -so we can
care for your family when you need us most.
Expert Pediatric Care all from the comfort of your couch—within the hour.
When is Tiny Pediatrics Open?
Tiny Pediatrics is open on Saturday and Sunday 8am-8pm.
When your child is sick, you can reach out to us by phone
and we will call you back within the hour.
We’re here when your Pediatrician’s office is closed—and before you rush to urgent care.

You get Expert Pediatric Care, NOT general Urgent Care Staff

No more late night googling for Pediatric advice.
This is why we’re here:
I’m Dr. Maria Karlsson, the founder of Tiny Pediatrics—and a mom to
four incredible kids. I’ve been in the ER at 2 am with my own feverish baby and
cried in urgent care waiting rooms, and I know what it’s like to just
need someone to answer the phone—and care.
That’s why I built Tiny Pediatrics: so that families could have a
better way. I have been caring for California and New York families since
2014 and have 20 years of experience working in Pediatric ERs. With a
Tiny Pediatrics Membership, you will get—
A warm, real doctor.
Answers that make sense.
Care that actually cares.
Because when your child is sick, it shouldn’t feel like a battle to be seen or heard.
We’re here to bring back the kind of Pediatric care every family deserves.
