Giardia lamblia or Giardiasis
The first is the name of the organism, the latter is the name of the disease caused by the pathogen.
This is most definitely a pathogenic organism. I recommend you use "Giardiasis" if the child was actively ill at the time (more than likely), alternatively you can say "was infected with Giardia lamblia" (or just Giardia).

: This is absolutely a pathogenic organism! Lamblia is dated - Giardia is fine.
