Meet Kenny: The Nutritionist Who Knows the Struggle Firsthand


Kenny didn’t set out to become a go-to person for baby and toddler nutrition. She was just a mom trying to feed her kids—until her second child made her rethink everything she thought she knew. A trained nutritionist with a solid understanding of what kids should eat, she found herself face-to-face with a picky eater who refused almost everything.
That’s when things shifted.
Instead of sticking to the textbook approach, Kenny started trying new things—tweaking textures, combining unexpected flavors, simplifying what felt complicated. It wasn’t about hiding vegetables or sneaking in nutrients. It was about figuring out what actually worked at the table, in real life, with real kids.
Now, that practical, hands-on mindset shapes everything Kenny does. She develops recipes and shares tips that are simple, balanced, and realistic—meals that parents can actually make, and kids might actually eat. From first purees to finger foods and toddler snacks, Kenny focuses on what’s doable, not perfect.
She also gets that food isn’t just food—it’s daily life, full of wins, fails, and moments in between. That’s why her advice goes beyond the plate: how to introduce solids without stress, how to deal with food refusal, how to make mealtimes a little easier.
Kenny’s work is a core part of Mindsmaking Babies—not because it’s her job, but because this is what she lives and cares about. She knows the pressure parents feel, and she’s not here to add to it. She’s here to share what’s helped her, what she’s learned, and what might just make things a bit smoother for other families too.
