Pediatrician in Tribeca, NYC

Personalized pediatric care in the heart of Tribeca

First Steps Pediatrics is a membership-based concierge pediatric practice in Tribeca, providing personalized, relationship-based care for newborns, infants, children and adolescents.

Located at 54 Warren Street, First Steps was founded by triple board-certified pediatrician Dr. Nilay Donmez to offer families a more personal approach to pediatric care—with longer visits, direct access to their pediatrician and ongoing support beyond the traditional office visit.

A Different Kind of Pediatric Practice

We intentionally care for a smaller community of families so that appointments can feel thoughtful rather than rushed.

Membership provides enhanced services including:

Direct access to your pediatric care team
Longer, unhurried appointments
Same-day or expedited visits when appropriate
Care coordination with specialists
Parent coaching and ongoing guidance
Remote examinations using an at-home examination device
Support between scheduled appointments

Newborn Pediatric Care in Tribeca

Our relationship with many families begins before their baby is born.

Expecting members receive a complimentary prenatal education session with Dr. Donmez to prepare for the first days and weeks with their newborn.

After delivery, we provide comprehensive newborn care with particular attention to feeding, growth, jaundice, sleep, development and the many questions that arise during the transition home.

Pediatric House Calls in Tribeca

For families who prefer care at home, pediatric house calls are available as an optional service.

House calls can be especially helpful during the newborn period or when bringing a sick child to the office is difficult.

In-Network Pediatric Care

First Steps Pediatrics is in-network with most major insurance plans, including Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare/Oxford and many Blue Cross Blue Shield/Anthem plans.

Insurance is used for covered medical services, while membership supports enhanced services such as direct physician access, extended visits, care coordination, remote examinations and ongoing support between appointments.
