I empower moms with specific strategies to help turn picky eaters into well rounded eaters and develop a positive relationship with all foods so that their child will thrive.

“Mom, am I fat?”

When a child starts questioning their body or food choices, our instinct is to fix it, to reassure, to guide.

But they don’t need a “talk about nutrition.”
What they really need is something simpler: they want to feel safe 💛

Safe to ask questions.
Safe to eat what’s on their plate.
Safe to feel at home in their body

Sometimes that starts with small shifts: slowing down mealtimes, listening more than fixing, keeping food available without pressure, and watching how we speak about our own bodies too.

When we show them that food isn’t scary and bodies aren’t problems to fix, they start feeling at peace with their own body.

If you feel like your child has body image concerns, I’m just a message away! 📩

Before you say “But you just ate” read this post 👀

Your teen finishes dinner… and five minutes later, the fridge door opens. Sound familiar?

Before jumping in with “You just ate!”, try asking “Are you hungry?”

That simple question can change everything.

Swipe to know what to say in case they say “Yes”, “No”, or if they’re simply not sure ➡️

When you have an open conversation with them, you’re not just teaching them how to eat, you’re teaching them how to listen. That’s awareness. And that’s what sets them up for a lifetime of healthy, balanced eating.

So the next time your teen opens the fridge, take a breath and use it as a moment to connect 💬

Tag or share this with a parent of a teen who’d find it helpful!

I see this more often than you’d think…

Younger kids picking up diet talk or “healthy eating rules” from their older siblings who mean well but don’t realize how confusing that can be for an 11-year-old still learning to trust their body 😅

It usually starts innocently: maybe an older sibling talks about “cutting carbs,” skipping dessert, or wanting to “eat clean.” The younger one listens… and suddenly starts questioning their own food choices, too.

They might say things like, “Is this food healthy?” or “Maybe I shouldn’t eat that.”

And that’s where the tricky part begins. What feels like “being mindful” to one child can quickly turn into stress for another.

When families work with me, we untangle these mixed messages and build a calmer, more trusting food environment, one where every child, no matter their age or size, feels seen, supported, and free to enjoy eating again.

Because food talk in your home shapes how your kids see themselves, and that’s where lifelong habits begin. ✨

Real talk: I’m a dietitian, not the food police (even for myself)

Real life has soccer practices, late pickups, birthdays, cravings, and I’m here for all of it. My goal isn’t perfection; it’s a calm, flexible rhythm that actually fits a family. That looks like nourishing most of the time and enjoying some of the time, without turning food into a test 🍦

Because food isn't just fuel. It's not just nutrients on a plate we need to optimize.

➡️It’s CONNECTION when you're sharing ice cream.
➡️It's CULTURE when you're making your grandma's recipe.
➡️It's CELEBRATION at birthday parties.
➡️It's CONVENIENCE when you're surviving a hard week.

And when our kids see us move through all of that without guilt, without compensating, without the "I'll be good tomorrow" narrative? That's when real nutrition education happens.

Your kids don't need a perfect eater. They need a peaceful one.🧡

Kids eat in an environment WE create.

I can’t say this enough: modeling is everything!
👉Your child is watching how you eat, how you talk about food, and how you respond when things don’t go as planned.

If meals feel chaotic, rushed, or filled with stress, kids pick up on that energy long before they pick up the fork. And if they hear us labeling foods as “good” or “bad,” they start building the same beliefs, even when we mean well.

When parents reach out to me, it’s rarely just about the child’s plate.

It’s about the whole environment: the tone at the table, the structure, the expectations, and the modeling that happens every single day.

Inside my 1:1 coaching, we work on shifting that dynamic, so you can feel calm, confident, and in control again, while your child learns to trust their body and enjoy food without pressure.

Because when you change the atmosphere, everything else follows. ✨

Let’s talk FIBER 🌱

You’ve probably heard it’s important, but here’s what most parents don’t realize: fiber doesn’t just help with “bathroom regularity.” It supports your child’s whole system, from digestion and fullness to stable energy and even mood.

When kids get enough fiber, you’ll often notice fewer sugar crashes, fewer “I’m hungry again” moments, and a happier tummy overall.

The trick? Offer fiber-rich foods in ways your child already enjoys:
🍎 Keep fruit skins on (like apples or pears)
🌾 Swap white bread for soft whole grain options
🥕 Add lentils or beans into soups or pasta sauce
🧁 Toss chia or flaxseeds into smoothies, yogurt, or muffins
🥦 Serve veggies with dips for extra crunch and fun

Small tweaks make a big difference!

You know those moments when you realize your parenting work is actually paying off? This was one of them!

When my son told me about the “candy closet chaos” at his friend’s house, it stopped me in my tracks.

He saw his friends grabbing handfuls like they’d never see candy again, but he didn’t feel the urge to do the same. He simply observed.

That’s the magic of raising kids who trust food and themselves.

When sweets aren’t restricted, they lose their power. And when food isn’t used as a reward or forbidden fruit, kids grow up knowing candy is just… candy 🍬

If you want your child to feel at peace around food too, that’s exactly what I help families build together 🥦

When dinner starts to feel like a pop quiz, kids stop feeling safe at the table 🍽️

If your child is scanning your face for approval with every scoop, that’s a sign the pressure is louder than the connection.

And to be clear, you’re not failing. Most of us were raised on food rules, so it sneaks out as “helpful” reminders, questions, and micro-corrections. I know you want the best for your child, and this whole “let them eat independently” is new to you, and you’re worried about them not choosing the right foods or not eating enough. (and I get it!!)

But here’s a gentler shift 👉 keep the structure, drop the scrutiny. You choose the menu and timing; they choose what and how much from what’s offered.

The goal isn’t a “perfect eater”. It’s a kid who feels secure enough to eat, pause, and come back tomorrow willing to try again.

I you need a mealtime plan that lowers pressure and builds trust, I can help. Send me a DM and let’s talk! 🧡

If your kid eats the same foods over and over again, this post is for you!

You’re not the only parent wondering if your child will ever eat something different. When I talk to families, this is one of the most common worries: kids who cling to the same foods day after day.

Here’s what I want you to know 👉Picky eating isn’t a parenting failure. It’s a phase of learning and trust-building.

Swipe through this post for 6 things you can do to encourage your little one to try new foods 🍓

If this sounds like your household right now, you’re not alone, and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself.

Let’s talk about the nutrient that does so much more than build muscle: Protein 💪

Protein isn’t just for athletes or adults hitting the gym. It’s one of the most important nutrients for growing kids. From strong muscles and bones to stable energy and focus in school, protein plays a role in almost every system in your child’s body.

Some easy go-tos:
🥚 Eggs at breakfast
🧀 Cheese or yogurt at snack time
🍗 Chicken, lentils, or beans at lunch and dinner
🥜 Nut butter on fruit or toast
🌾 Whole grains like oats or quinoa for an extra boost

These small, balanced additions go a long way in helping your child grow, learn, and stay energized all day. 🌟

If you’re not sure whether your child is getting enough, or you’d like help planning balanced meals that actually fit your family’s routine, I can help.
