Hear what Kate had to say


There has been a seismic shift in our family dynamic post our consultation with you! It has been an incredibly positive

experience for us.

We are pretty religiously eating breakfast and dinner together which has been a really positive for everyone. The power shift has been hard for Oli*, 8 but we’ve definitely made some positive steps – he’s eating tinned peaches (his idea) on his cereal (after your amazing Jelly trick that you taught us) and has tried some banana.

He’s tolerating yoghurt again in his lunchbox which is coming back pretty clean. He loved the chocolate muffins.

We understand this is a marathon and not a sprint so have realistic expectations. Our youngest daughter Charlotte* has astounded us – she’s eating pretty much everything we present to her (so much so, she asked where the lettuce and carrots were at breakfast!).

We can’t thank you enough for the help you have given us so far.
