Who we are, why we care, and how we’re here to support your family.

Nutrition is more than just food—it’s about fostering a child’s growth, development, and relationship with eating. The word nutrition comes from the Latin nutrire, meaning “to nourish,” and true nourishment extends beyond nutrients to include routines, environment, and family connections. At Growing Well Nutrition, we help families navigate picky eating, food allergies, Autism nutrition, and more with a balanced, stress-free approach. Our goal is not to dictate what your child should eat but to provide guidance that empowers you to make confident food choices. We move away from rigid food rules and instead focus on creating positive mealtime experiences. As pediatric dietitians, we support, not judge, helping families build lifelong healthy eating habits. Through personalized strategies, we make nutrition approachable, enjoyable, and sustainable. Together, we create a foundation for nourishment.

At Growing Well Nutrition we help families build lasting habits and positive relationships with food through realistic compassionate support that blends nutrition education with behavior focused strategies for every stage of childhood.

In addition to pursuing Growing Well Nutrition, she currently works in an outpatient specialized pediatric clinic working specifically with children with complex medical needs who require in-depth nutrition needs due to feeding difficulties, developmental delays, and other chronic medical conditions. Before this, she worked in a clinic with pediatric eating disorders, weight management, and nephrology.

Her passion is working with families to restore peace and balance during mealtimes and to provide tools to help with all concerns from poor growth in infants to moms wanting to become the best, most healthful version of themselves! She loves seeing her clients grow and flourish more than anything.
