Guidance To Help With Nutritional Difficulties Due To Developmental Or Medical Conditions

Nutritional difficulties can present in many ways: limited intake, unbalanced diets, unpredictable eating patterns, secondary to medical diagnoses, or concerns about growth and development.

​

Whether your child is eating very little, relying on a narrow range of foods, or struggling to meet their nutritional needs due to medical, sensory or developmental factors, I take a calm, whole-child approach to understanding the underlying causes

​

Assessment & Monitoring

I undertake a detailed review of dietary intake, meal patterns and growth history, alongside any contributing factors such as medical diagnoses, allergies, gastrointestinal symptoms, neurodiversity or feeding challenges.

​

I assess energy, protein and key micronutrient intake, monitor growth trends over time, and identify whether nutritional gaps may be affecting health, development or overall wellbeing.

​

Practical, Individualised Support

Support is tailored to your child’s needs and family circumstances.

​

This may include food-first strategies to strengthen intake, realistic adjustments to meal structure, supplementation where required, and liaison with GPs or other professionals if further investigation is indicated.

​

The focus is always on protecting nutrition and growth while working at a pace that feels manageable and pressure-free.
