Does your child eat a very limited range of foods?

Do mealtimes feel stressful, exhausting, or even isolating? You are not alone โ€” and you have come to the right place.

I'm Iwona, a paediatric dietitian with over 12 years of NHS experience specialising in sensory and selective eating in children. I understand how worrying it can be when your child's diet feels very limited โ€” and I'm here to help, without judgement.

Sensory kids are wonderfully unique. And so is every approach I take.

Iwona โ€” The Sensory Dietitian

A gentle, pressure-free approach โ€” always

๐Ÿ’™

Every child is different

And that's not just okay โ€” it's something to celebrate. I never use a one-size-fits-all approach.

๐ŸŒฑ

Food should never be forced

Pressure at mealtimes makes things harder, not easier. I help families find a calmer path forward.

โœจ

Small steps lead to big changes

Progress looks different for every child. I celebrate every win, however small it might seem.

๐Ÿค

Parents deserve support too

Not just advice โ€” real, practical support. You are doing an incredible job in a genuinely difficult situation.
