Karina’s story..

Back in 2012, we had our first baby. Little did I know the journey I was about to embark on with feeding her.

Firstly - she was a colicky baby… a chucker, gassy and irritable. Luckily for me, as a paediatric gut health dietitian who had studied babies exactly like this, I was able to come up with a plan to fix her tummy… and get some sleep!

Then, moving into toddlerhood, came the fussy eating!!! Let’s just say, I truly understand first hand how your confidence can be shattered when you have a fussy eater, who constantly refuses nutritious foods.

It’s unfair how much our self confidence and self worth gets wrapped up in what our child eats.

Since then I have completely changed my approach to feeding…and now I love helping other mums nourish their little ones more easily!

I created Nourishing Kids to be a β€œone stop shop” for feeding kids. Whether it’s learning how to start solids with your baby or deal with a fussy eater at dinner time, Nourishing Kids has got you covered.

I know the secret juice and I want this for you too, which is why I’m here to change your story in your home - so you can do this too

I had a 3 year old who was very fussy and scared of trying new foods. He has been making progress and tasting new foods now thanks to Karina’s informative program and meal times are so much more fun and stress-free.

Karina is lovely in her approach and so inspiring with her knowledge and delicious, healthy recipes. I now have more confidence and motivation moving forward!

Thank you so much for your support, Karina!!
