NUTRITION FOR KIDS
COACHING FOR PARENTS

Empowering parents to rewrite their food stories. Supporting the next generation of confident, nourished, eaters. 

Nourish your family at every stage

FEEL CONFIDENT ABOUT HOW TO FEED YOUR FAMILY

  • Unsure where to begin with introducing solids to your baby?

  • Worried your picky toddler isn't meeting their nutrition needs?

  • Struggling with mealtime battles or food power struggles at home?

  • Concerned about your child’s bigger body, but want to protect their relationship with food?

  • Wondering how to talk to your child about food and body image without making things worse?

  • Do you fear your young athlete might not be eating enough?

  • Curious about the early signs of disordered eating or RED-S in young athletes?

  • Figuring out how to best fuel your active child or teen athlete during busy sports seasons?
  • Hoping to raise your kids with a positive relationship with food—different from your own upbringing?

 

You're not alone. Feeding kids is one of the hardest jobs we have as parents. I'm here to help at ever stage, from toddlers to teens.

About me

Hi, I'm Jackie. I am a weight-inclusive, non-diet dietitian and advocate of intuitive eating. My approach blends nutrition with compassion to meet you where you are.

As a parent of two young children, I see you. I get why you worry about your child's health. I hear that you're concerned about the foods your child is or isn't eating. 

AS A REGISTERED DIETITIAN with 15 years of experience, I also know that Mainstream nutrition tends to be oversimplify and mired in diet culture and weight stigma.
