Paediatric Nutrition Counselling

Sustainable nutrition strategies for growing bodies so they can experience calmer moods, better focus and a happy belly

Since there's no one size fits all when it comes to health, my approach is to deeply understand your child's health history, food likes and dislikes and daily routines so that we can create customized protocols to address their unique needs.

Your step-by step roadmap

Since food greatly affects how kids’ brains function, how they grow, their moods and ability to learn, giving them the right fuel goes a long way.

When we work together, we’ll look at how food might be contributing to imbalances in your child’s body. Blood sugar dysregulation, nutrient deficiencies and imbalances in the gut microbiome are common triggers for tummy troubles, anxiety and ADHD.

We’ll peel back the layers to understand why your child is struggling and map out a plan to get them back to feeling their best.

A holistic approach

to re-building the foundations of your child’s health

While it’s common for our classrooms to be full of kids struggling with anxiety, ADHD health problems, the incidences are now far too high and conventional approaches usually neglect to address the root causes. Our kids are nutritionally depleted, emotionally dysregulated and exposed to far more toxins than their bodies can cope with.

The good news is - there’s so much you can do with a nutrition, supplement and lifestyle approach to support the core pillars of your child’s health: nervous system regulation, blood sugar balance and gut health.

LET’S TAKE THE GUESSWORK OUT OF CHOOSING NOURISHING FOODS

that your kids love and look forward to eating

  • Learn to make easy, kid-approved meals with nutrient-dense carbs, protein and fat to support blood sugar balance (for better moods, focus, sleep and self-regulation)

  • Pack in protein for kids who love sugar and carbs and make sure they're getting enough of the right nutrients for their growing body

  • Spot red flags on food labels and choose healthy swaps for your kids’ favorite foods

  • Use appropriate, child-friendly language to ensure your child develops a positive relationship with food

Hi! I’m Danielle.

Registered Holistic Nutritionist, elementary teacher and former gymnastics coach with a special interest in helping kids get the nutrition they need to learn, grow and feel their best.

I found my passion for teaching special education early in my career and I believe that nutrition is a fundamental piece of the puzzle when it comes to supporting kids with learning, behaviour and regulation challenges.

HOW IT WORKS:

INITIAL CONSULTATION

We'll start with a deep dive discussion into your child's health history, current diet, food preferences and top challenges and goals. We’ll begin to make connections between their struggles and the deeper issues going on so that we can establish a personalized plan to address them from the inside out. We’ll map out a plan and you’ll leave with initial action steps in your child’s protocol.

EDUCATION & GUIDANCE

During follow-up sessions, we'll tackle your family’s goals with gentle, incremental changes to your child’s nutrition and lifestyle, boosted with supplementation, if needed. You can expect support with meal planning, school lunches and nutritious meals on the go. Education is a big part of our work together because I want you to understand the why behind my recommendations and feel confident making changes.

FUNCTIONAL LAB TESTING

HTMA is an at-home lab test that assesses your child’s mineral levels, nutrient imbalances and heavy metal load, at a cellular level. Minerals may be small but they have a vital impact on your digestion, moods, energy, brain health and skin.

Once we receive your child’s results, we’ll get busy creating a customized protocol with nutrition, lifestyle and supplement recommendations based on their results, health history and goals. We’ll go over their results and recommendations in detail during a follow-up session.
