About

You’ve tried EVERYTHING to get your kids to eat more

but it’s like they’re allergic to anything that doesn’t come out of a box (and they’re not allergic, you checked)

I get it. The early years of feeding my kids was nothing like I expected, even after working in the field of nutrition for a decade before I had them. The first time I fed my oldest solids, I filmed it so that I could use it in my business as a model to show other parents how it’s done. You won’t see that video anywhere because as quickly as it started, it ended….with me yelling, “OH $H!T” and the screen going black as I dropped my phone in panic. 

It was my youngest that gave me the bigger run for my money with feeding though. I introduced solids and he just wouldn’t eat them…at all. I swear we spent months in feeding therapy before he realized he had a tongue. Therapy at two different feeding clinics, weekly Chiropractic, CranioSacral Therapy, more weight checks than I ever wanted to do, tongue tie release AND revision…we did it all. 

Hi, I’m Stephanie, and I help parents feed their families with ease and confidence.

You’ve tried forcing, “just one more bite.” You’ve tried bribery – Who doesn’t want a new toy or more money in their piggy bank? You’ve resorted to becoming a short-order cook with 2…3… or maybe even 4 different meals being served each night. Heck, you’ve even tried hiding foods to try and sneak in what you know they need.

I know what it feels like to worry about your child’s health and wellbeing. I understand the pressure and the weight of responsibility that is put on parents, especially mothers, to somehow control what their child eats or how they grow. 

The mom in me could not be the Dietitian when my daughter had a dairy allergy or my son had feeding difficulties. The only way I got through it was by finding support, but everyone I asked had a different answer or opinion. Ultimately, I had to learn more about myself and my family to be able to know what the next best step was for us. 

And let me tell you: What I found was that feeding challenges are RARELY just about food. My journey to feed my kids took me to tools  like Human Design, Astrology, Reiki, and EFT (emotional freedom technique). These allowed me to put the things that I felt and knew were true into words and help me release my own emotions – And that was the game changer. 

Feeding challenges are a result of many different factors, including your child’s physical abilities, sensory preferences, and emotional regulation. 

• Add to the mix who you are, what you believe, and how you feel about things. 
• Add to the mix what information you have access to and what you’re being advised to do by others (be it healthcare professionals or well meaning friends and family). 
• Add to the mix how well your environment works for your child and the energetic dynamics between you. 

Now cue the overwhelm and anxiety! 

You don’t have to struggle anymore. What I’ve created is a holistic, whole-family approach that helps you address each factor that’s contributing to the stress and second-guessing around feeding your child.

I want to support your whole family, not just give you a meal plan or tell you “the one thing” (that may or may not work) to get your kid to eat. 

Taking my approach doesn’t mean you won’t face challenges, it just means that when the challenges come your way, you’ll know how to navigate them with clarity, confidence, and a sense of calm that you may not have felt before.

 

Fun Facts About Me

• I’ve been told more times than I can count that I smile too much – It bothers people, but I just can’t help it! It’s my Sagittarius Sun shining through.

• My bookshelf is literally overloaded with books, and I’ve read approximately 0 of them in full.

• I stopped coloring my hair and let my gray come in long before it was in style.

• I’m a born and bred New Englander and will probably never move – I love the change of seasons and get bored with the weather by the time each season ends.

• I’m part of the Panini Generation, “pressed” between caring for my young kids and managing care for my disabled mom at the same time. It’s not easy, but when I say I understand the realities of life, I mean it!
