Testimonials
Amy has been a great support for our family. She is always available and really helpful. We would happily recommend her to other families with kids that have long term nutrition needs
Other dietitians just kept telling us what we needed to feed our son and we felt like we already knew this. Amy was great and gave us advice on HOW to get our son to eat what we were offering.
We have seen so many clinicians and this is the first time we feel like our nutrition concerns have actually felt heard.
Amy is great. She is helpful and very informative. She definitely helped with our youngest daughters eating. She gave us practical strategies and took the time to explain things. We would highly recommend her.
We would highly recommend Amy to other families. She was really helpful with our sons eating and we found the home visit really useful. She was really great. She took the time to explain things and would email through summaries after each appointment. Thank you!
