Dr. James Schmidt
has more than 9 years of experience as a pediatric Emergency
Room physician, and has served in that capacity for the
past six years at Children's Hospital of The King's Daughters
(CHKD), a leading children’s hospital in Hampton Roads,
Virginia.
As an emergency room pediatric professional,
he sees first-hand the results of inadequate home and
business childproofing which cause falls, burns, poisoning,
drowning, choking and strangulation, and more.
Being the father of baby and a toddler,
Dr. Schmidt understands that keeping babies and young
children safe is a full-time job. To help mothers in this
endeavor, he co-founded Child Safety House Calls in 2007
to ensure they had the knowledge and correct child safety
products to keep their babies and children safe.
Dr. Schmidt and his co-founder, Dr. Joel Clingenpeel (also
a Pediatric Emergency Room physician at CHKD), felt they
could slow the steady stream of babies and young children
to emergency rooms around the country by freely sharing
their child safety knowledge with mothers. They determined
the best ways to help were: this informative Web site,
media interviews, and a program to thoroughly test and
sell child safety products to mothers nationwide.
On the local level where they live,
the doctors established a child safety home consultation
program for mothers who live in Virginia Beach, Norfolk,
Chesapeake, Portsmouth, Suffolk, Hampton, Newport News,
Williamsburg, and throughout Hampton Roads, Virginia.
Career Overview
Dr. Schmidt has dedicated his 12-year career to preventing
and treating illness and injury in children. After completing
medical school and pediatric residency, Dr. Schmidt completed
a sub-specialty fellowship to earn board certification
in pediatric emergency medicine. His passion for child
advocacy led him to earn a master degree in public health,
as well as co-found Child Safety House Calls. He is an
accomplished clinician, educator, researcher, and child
advocate, and considers fatherhood his most treasured
accomplishment.
