Be Well Nourishment Nutritional Solutions

Mealtimes don't have to be a daily struggle. Whether your child experiences sensory challenges around food, selective eating or has a limited diet, compassionate, evidence-based support can make a meaningful difference.

Tracy provides nutritional support to children and adolescents using evidence-based and practical nutritional advice that best suits their specific needs.  Successful feeding therapy sessions involve more than expanding the foods a child eats. It is about reducing stress, improving confidence, supporting nutritional wellbeing and helping families enjoy mealtimes together again. Progress looks different for every child. For some, it may be comfortably tolerating a new food on their plate. For others, it may mean increasing dietary variety, meeting nutritional needs or reducing anxiety around eating.

How Tracy can help

As a qualified nutritionist, Tracy works with families to support children experiencing:

• Sensory sensitivities to food textures, smells, colours or temperatures
• Picky or selective eating that affects nutrition or family life
• Paediatric feeding disorders  (including oral aversion)
• ARFID (Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder)
• Autism and ADHD nutrition and feeding support
• Limited food variety
• Anxiety around eating or trying new foods
• Mealtime stress and family conflict surrounding food
• Growth concerns, digestive issues and general nutrition
• Mental health and wellbeing

Every therapy plan is tailored to your child's individual needs, preferences and developmental stage.

Assessment

An initial consultation is recommended for all new clients starting at Be Well Nourishment and typically involves meeting with both the parent and child, discussing primary health concerns and gathering a brief medical and developmental history. 

Tracy will conduct a thorough assessment and work with parents to develop an individualised treatment program that is specific to your child’s needs.

Feeding Therapy

The type, frequency and duration of sessions is tailored to children’s specific needs. Treatment may include clinic-based food therapy sessions, parent only sessions or home-based visits. Treatment may also include activities or exercises to do at home and referral to and/or liaison with other health professionals. No matter where your child is on their feeding journey, support is available. Together, we can work towards making mealtimes calmer, more enjoyable and less overwhelming for the whole family.
