About Dr. Felicity Taylor

Dr Felicity Taylor is a Consultant Paediatrician with over 18 years’ experience in frontline NHS care. Felicity set up The Children’s Clinic in 2024 as a way to bring world-class paediatric healthcare, for babies, children and young people, to her local community in the Hertfordshire area.

“I aim to provide the knowledge and reassurance that I would want for my own children, in an accessible and personal form.”

Felicity’s NHS Consultant practice is at the world-renowned Evelina Children’s Hospital in London, where she works in the specialist children’s emergency department and children’s short stay unit, diagnosing, treating and managing patients. She specialises in diagnosing and treating urgent and emergency conditions in patients from birth up to 18 years old.

From colic in babies to palpitations in teenagers, if your child is unwell Felicity works responsively to get them back to full health as quickly as possible.

Felicity is Patient Safety lead for the children’s emergency department and has a particular interest in improving patient care through improving communication between patients, families and staff. She is a trained ‘speak up’ advocate, natural listener, and skilled communicator and is passionate in improving the experience of healthcare for children and their families.

Felicity has experience working in National Healthcare Commissioning at NHS England, and in developing national standards for emergency care for children and young people at the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health (RCPCH).

Felicity is also a busy mum to three even busier children, age 7, 5 and 2.  When she's not in clinic she is usally to be found on the side of a tennis court or football sideline, cheering them on!

The Children's Clinic is the proud sponsor of Harpenden Colts football team for the 2026/7 and 2027/8 seasons.

Dr Felicity was incredible. She treated both myself and my son with such compassion and really listened to our problems. I genuinely felt that my baby would be an exception and that maybe I just had a tricky baby again but Dr Felicity was so reassuring and gave us a plan to help sort him out. We can’t thank her enough.

Hi Aida, thank you for the super review, it made me really happy to get a review from one of my patients! I loved seeing you again - you have grown so tall now. Keep eating well and keeping active, and looking forward to seeing you again when you are even bigger! Love from Dr Felicity

After a very disappointing experience with an NSH doctor, we decided to seek a second opinion with Dr Taylor—and we’re so glad we did. She was incredibly understanding, took the time to listen carefully to all of our concerns, and made us feel genuinely heard. Not only did she provide a clear resolution, but she also gave us practical tools to help manage our daughter’s condition moving forward. We would highly recommend Dr Taylor to anyone who feels overlooked by their usual GP. The service was excellent, but more importantly, she is a truly compassionate and caring doctor.

Thank you for this review. The beauty of my practice is I have the time to be able to fully explore all of your concerns - parents are the key to their child's health and recovery, and it is only by working in partnership with families that we get the results our children need. Thanks for coming to see me. All the best.

We had such a fantastic experience and can’t thank Dr Felicity enough for her support and guidance during a very anxious time for our family. Our 5 day old baby, Emmie, needed a scan for a lump, and naturally we were extremely worried. We were unable to get the help required but Dr Felicity took time to make a referral and get us the support and guidance required. The service we received was outstanding from start to finish. Dr Felicity took time to listen to our concerns, acted with speed and managed to find a doctor who could do the scan within the same week. This would have been a challenge as not many can scan babies this young. The waiting time on the NHS was 12 weeks and we just couldn’t wait that long. The doctor who carried out the scan on Dr Felicity’s recommendation was incredibly reassuring and explained clearly that there was nothing to be concerned about. Thankfully, the lump has now completely disappeared. The relief we felt was immense, it meant my husband could truly enjoy his paternity leave, and I was finally able to relax and sleep without constant worry. We’re so grateful for the kindness and care we were shown. Dr Felicity followed up with us to share the results and offer support to understand the results. We’ve already shared Dr Felicity’s details with family and friends, and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone needing support. Although we hope not to need Dr Felicity’s support in the future we certainly wouldn’t hesitate to go back to her in a heartbeat moving forward. Just exceptional. Thank you again for everything.

Dr Felicity is an exceptional paediatrician. From the very first appointment, she was incredibly knowledgeable and thorough, taking the time to carefully listen to my concerns and explain everything clearly. Her reassuring approach immediately puts me at ease, which means a lot as a mother. What I appreciate most is how attentive and detailed Dr Felicity is during consultations. She never rushes and always makes sure all questions are answered. It’s clear she genuinely cares about her patients and wants best outcomes for the children she treats. I would highly recommend Dr Felicity to any parent!

Felicity has been absolutely amazing with our 18month old Son. After around 10 visits to the Doctors and still no improvement in his symptoms we went to see Felicity for a specialist opinion. She diagnosed him with PBB immediately and has been brilliant with helping us on our path to recovery. I would recommend Felicity to anyone :)

Dr Felicity saw my son in clinic and she put him at ease right from the start. She explained things in a way he could understand. We both felt at ease and the consultation went smoothly as a result. She was very thorough in her assessment and we have a plan in place now. I would highly recommend seeing her if you have concerns about your child’s health or well being. Thank you very much!
