My ideal client is a parent feeling overwhelmed by picky eating, mealtime stress, or ongoing digestive concerns. They’ve tried advice from the internet and well-meaning friends but still feel unsure what’s actually helpful. They want clear, practical guidance that supports their child’s growth without pressure or rigid rules. Their goal is calmer meals, improved food variety, better digestive comfort, and confidence that they’re doing the right thing for their family.
