“I’m so happy to be able to enjoy mealtime again. Working with Kristen is easy and judgement-free.”

Kristen has completely changed how my son and our family view and approach mealtime. My son has gone from underweight to a healthy weight and our mealtime anxiety/pressure is gone. I’m so happy to be able to enjoy mealtime again. Working with Kristen is easy and judgement-free. She is always accessible, which has been an amazing plus for me. I’m able to message her about specific situations in between sessions which is incredibly helpful. I am also always impressed with the wealth of knowledge Kristen has about pediatric nutrition, I’ve learned so much from her and continue to learn. I would highly recommend Kristen to anyone struggling with pediatric nutrition.

Our Key Values

We’re all learning, together

• We’re all in the same boat when it comes to feeding our kids – we just want what’s best for them.

• Every child is different with their own unique needs; recommendations should be too.

• Mealtimes don’t have to be a disaster! Stay open to listening and tuning into your child’s needs
without the stress, guilt and pressure.




Yes please!

Foster a feel-good, enjoyable environment.

• Just like you, your child deserves to be comfortable and confident in who they are.

• Create healthier food habits in an enjoyable mealtime environment to help your family thrive.

• Learn the foundations to understand how to best respond to your child’s needs and
overcome common hurdles.


I want!

Real advice for real parents should never be complicated.

• Feeding your kids should be as simple as it is reliable, factual, and evidence-based.

• Don’t stress, your time is better spent enjoying meaningful moments with your family.

• You deserve to feel empowered in your decisions, not bogged down by information overwhelm.
