MISSION

Being a mum herself, my mission is to empower families with practical, evidence based nutrition solutions that make mealtimes calmer, healthier and more enjoyable.

I combine my 24 years experience as a Paediatric Dietitian, with real-life tools and compassion I’ve learnt as a mum, to help parents to feel confident wile nurturing children to thrive.

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 my fussy eating program and membership to be everything an overwhelmed parent needs to raise a healthy eater, stress free.

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
