When children come into our lives as babies, it is often the first time that we really contemplate the importance of good nutrition. Graphs in their little Red Books are monitored with great scrutiny to ensure that their growth is in the right percentile. Huge debate goes on around the whole subject of weaning, whether it should be baby-led or parent-led! Thousands of books are purchased (often written by authors with no nutritional training!) on what to feed them on then!

And then once our pride and joy is onto solid foods, we often encounter picky & finicky eating, along with a whole host of other parent angst-inducing issues! Somewhere along the line we lose our preoccupation with our little ones’ eating habits, as they gradually start consuming the ‘family diet‘. But how much do we really concentrate on WHAT our children should be eating to maximise their potential?

We live in a world where adults struggle so much with their own food choices, suffering from everything from eating disorders, overweight, chronic health conditions, not to mention the burgeoning diabetes epidemic. It has therefore never been more important to ensure our children have the very best nutritional start in life. Not only to build up their bodies to be healthy and strong, but to ensure healthy nutrition habits in the future.

There is much more to child nutrition than just ‘healthy growth and development‘. Childhood nutrition impacts everything from brain function, intelligence, and behaviour to hyperactivity and depression. Food impacts psychological health, mood, anxiety, & hyperactive behaviours, such as ADHD, autism, epilepsy & Rett Syndrome. Each child has their own unique neurochemical and nutritional needs which need to be addressed.

We are certified in Child Nutrition & Advanced Brain Development and can provide personalised health risk assessments, including key nutrient deficiencies, that can impact reading & writing, brain function and detect diet-related hyperactivity symptoms. We can assess if your child is growing as they should, and assist you in what to do if they are not. We offer a child nutrition framework, personalised precisely to your child’s needs.

If you have specific concerns about learning issues such as dyslexia, memory, mood, behaviour, depression, aggression, ADHD, autism or epilepsy, we can offer you dietary strategies to employ.
