Let's raise

Hi, I'm Amanda!

 

I am a  Clinical Dietitian with over 12 years of experience focusing exclusively on paediatric nutrition.

I believe feeding our children is about more than just nutrients - it should be bonding, fun, social, a source of rich experiences and magical memories, teaching our children to trust their bodies and care for themselves.

 

That’s why I have dedicated my  life's work to helping families find the balance between excellent nutrition and a happy, thriving relationship with food.
