Pediatric Nutrition Coaching

Nutrition Counseling for Children and Families

Your one-stop shop for evidence-based family nutrition care, Whole Lifecycle Nutrition provides medical nutrition therapy for a variety of conditions. We focus on behavior change strategies to motivate kids and parents to make positive lifestyle changes.

Pediatric-focused Nutrition

When it comes to nutrition education, there is an overwhelming amount of information out there. What busy parent has time to sort through it all? We can help by providing easy-to-execute family plans designed with a step wise progression of baby steps to a healthier lifestyle. Mealtime stress is a real thing in many homes. Practical solutions can empower you to bring joy back to the table and help your kids develop lifelong beneficial relationships with food. In addition to family nutrition and resolving feeding issues, we offer individualized medical nutrition therapy for all ages. We provide nutrition therapy for eating disorders, gut issues, food allergies or intolerances, weight management, and more. Childhood obesity has more than doubled in kids and quadrupled in teens in the past three decades. A supportive treatment team and family involvement can help. We do not focus on weight or calories, but instead promote behavior change and a healthful approach to eating. We address nutrition, physical activity, sleep, stress, and body image to help children achieve and maintain a healthy body.

Family, Child, and Adolescent Nutrition is for you if you could use professional expertise in:

Picky eating and food refusal

Ways to increase physical activity for kids and family

Kid friendly meal ideas that won’t wind up as garden compost

Meal prepping for a family

Grocery shopping on a budget or pantry makeover tips

Reading nutrition facts labels to make smart choices at the grocery store

Healthy snacking for kids (and adults) of all ages

Promoting a positive body image

Overcoming an eating disorder

  Our family pediatrician told us that our kids should see a nutritionist. I admit I was not totally sold and was worried about putting emphasis on their weight. I found Whole Lifecycle Nutrition on our health insurance websites provider search tool. I could not be happier. Rachel is so understanding and gets that to work with families the most important thing is a realistic plan. She spends time to get to know us and remembers everything our kids tell her, even the name of my daughters stuffie she brought to a session once. She never discusses weight with the kids. I am relieved and happy that this is who we found. I was worried about us feeling judged and this is not the case. If your kids or family might need some guidance on healthy eating and making lifestyle changes definitely consider Whole Lifecycle Nutrition.
