More About Me
I understand
Even with all my knowledge and expertise I have found feeding my family a CHALLENGE. When I started out with weaning my first baby it was HARD.  My baby wouldn’t pick up a single finger food and much of the food would end up on the floor.  I worried she wasn’t getting the food and nutrition she needed. Later, I had to navigate a new feeding struggle when my daughter became fussy and refused to eat any fruit and vegetables.
My turning point

I knew I could do something about this to help myself and others so I collated my knowledge, personal experience, and the latest research into plans for successful weaning and feeding. This – coupled with many questions I was getting from my NCT friends – led to my first weaning workshop. My freelance baby and child nutrition business was born!

I love what I do

Talking through a food and feeding problem, developing a plan that fits around the family and helping to make changes, as together we work out what works and what doesn’t. I get great pleasure from seeing a child that is finally eating happily and healthily (alongside a more

relaxed family). Ultimately I thrive on feeling that I'm helping raise future generations of healthy, happy eaters.

For me right now I’m happy to report, that my daughters are mostly happy, adventurous eaters.

Healthy Eating child and dad
In particular I specialise in:
  • Weaning

  • The management of fussy eaters, including extreme fussy eaters. If I feel you need a referral to another specialist to help manage extreme fussy eating I will make it

  • Constipation and gut health 

  • Iron deficiency anemia (I have iron-overload myself which is basically the reverse advice)

  • Plant-based eating (vegetarian and vegan-diets)

  • Allergy prevention advice

Training for nursery staff

I can train your staff in weaning, fussy eating or other baby and child nutrition topics of your choice.
