Additional information:
I’m a Registered Dietitian with a passion for helping families find bliss around the table. As a mom myself, I understand the concerns that can come with feeding your child—we often ask ourselves questions like, Are they getting enough? Am I promoting healthy habits?These concerns are totally normal. I’m here to tell you that you’re not alone & are probably doing better than you think! Improving a child’s relationship with food starts with changing the way the family looks at mealtime, and I’m here to equip you with the knowledge, tools, and resources you need to nourish your littles today & set them up for a lifetime of success.
I specialize in pediatric nutrition, tube feeding, failure to thrive, formula intolerance and picky eating among other common pediatric feeding concerns. I strongly believe that including a dietitian in part of your child’s feeding team is imperative. Adjusting what is served to improve their nutrition can support growth & development and be an important piece to success in feeding therapy.
To limit mealtime stress I utilize Ellyn Satter’s Division of Responsibility in Eating which divides the roles of eating for children and feeding for families. Very often I work with clients on improving energy levels, managing blood sugar and optimizing bowel regimens. I can also help transition children to whole-food blended tube feeding or help wean tube feedings.
