Paediatric Nutrition and Feeding Support

Feeding kids isn't always straightforward, and every child's needs are different. Our dietitians provide warm, practical, family-centred nutrition support for infants, children and teens;  helping parents feel more confident and less stressed at mealtimes.

​

We support families with:

  • Infant and toddler feeding & picky eating: introducing solids, navigating fussy or selective eating, and building positive mealtime habits without pressure or power struggles
     

  • Feeding differences in neurodivergent children: supporting kids with sensory sensitivities, rigid food preferences, or other feeding challenges often seen alongside autism, ADHD, or other neurodivergence, with strategies tailored to how your child actually experiences food
     

  • Toddler and childhood nutrition:  general nutrition guidance to support growth, energy and development at every stage
     

  • Adolescent nutrition: supporting teens through the nutritional demands of puberty, growth spurts, sport, and increasing independence around food
     

We take a family-centred, non-restrictive approach. Rather than focusing on what a child "should" eat, we work with you to understand what's driving the challenge and build realistic strategies your whole family can sustain. We collaborate with your GP, paediatrician, or allied health team, such as Occupational Therapist or Speech Pathologist, where needed.

 

Who this is for: Parents and caregivers of infants, children or teens who want support with feeding, picky eating, or general nutrition, including families of neurodivergent children navigating feeding differences.

 

Recommended practitioner: This is a special area of interest for Susan, consultations available both via telehealth and in-person on Fridays at our Mornington clinic.
