Paediatric Dietitian for Fussy Picky Eaters:

As a pediatric dietitian, Karina understands how overwhelming it can be to navigate the world of children’s nutrition. From picky eating to gut health issues, food allergies, and the constant battle against ultra-processed foods, feeding kids can feel like an uphill challenge. That’s why she created Nourishing Kids—her online support program designed to help families improve their children’s nutrition with expert guidance, practical strategies, and ongoing support.

Inside the program, you’ll find:

  • Step-by-step feeding strategies to help kids develop a healthy relationship with food

  • Nutrition resources and meal plans for easy, balanced meals the whole family will enjoy

  • Expert advice on gut health, fussy eating, and food intolerances

  • A supportive community of parents on the same journey

Whether you’re struggling with a fussy eater, concerned about your child’s digestion, or simply want to feel more confident about feeding kids and their nutrition, Nourishing Kids gives you the tools to make feeding easier.

Nutrition Consultations for Personalised Support

Online Telehealth Consultations Across Australia

For families who need more tailored advice, I offer private one-on-one consultations where we dive deep into your child’s specific nutrition needs. Whether it’s gut issues, food intolerances, fussy eating, or meal planning, I’ll help you create a clear and realistic plan for improving their nutrition.

I specialise in the following Paediatric Nutrition Areas:

  • Irritable infants (colic/reflux)

  • Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and the Low FODMAP Diet

  • Carbohydrate intolerances/malabsorption (lactose/fructose/sucrose)

  • Allergies eg. milk and egg

  • Fussy eating

  • Iron deficiency

  • Constipation

  • Coeliac Disease, Inflammatory Bowel Disease

  • Underweight/ Failure to Thrive

  • Overweight and Obesity

  • Vegetarian diets

  • Autism/ADHD

  • Sports nutrition for children and adolescents

  • NDIS Registered - both plan and self managed

When we improve their Nutrition and Gut health, your child will experience:

  • Stronger immunity – helping kids fight off common colds and illnesses

  • Better digestion and gut health – reducing tummy pain, constipation, and bloating

  • Improved focus and learning – fueling their brains for better concentration

  • Stable energy levels – preventing mood swings and sugar crashes

  • Long-term healthy habits – setting them up for a lifetime of good nutrition



Gut health is especially important in kids, as the gut microbiome influences everything from digestion to immunity and even mental health. Many common tummy issues—such as constipation, bloating, diarrhea, and food intolerances—stem from poor gut health, and supporting the gut through proper nutrition can make a world of difference.
