Hi, I’m Steve.
I founded Origami Nutrition because I believe that healthy eating habits shouldn't be a source of family stress. My approach is rooted in the idea of "unfolding" potential: taking the complex science of paediatric nutrition and making it accessible, manageable, and structured for your daily life.
I don't believe in "hidden" vegetables or mealtime battles. My work is informed by deep engagement in evidence-based research and the study of paediatric nutrition. I look at the "structure" of how a child eats, focusing on sensory support, the mealtime environment, and foundational growth rather than just the contents of their plate.
Qualifications:

Just like an origami creation, a child’s health starts with a single fold. Whether we are building a prenatal foundation or navigating the sensory challenges of a fussy toddler, I am here to help you fold in the habits that will last a lifetime.
Navigating your child’s nutrition often feels like second-guessing every single meal. At Origami Nutrition, you deserve more than generic handouts or quick fixes that do not fit your family's reality.
We take a structured, evidence-based approach to pediatric care. Every recommendation is designed to be practical, sustainable, and tailored to your child's unique developmental stage.
Our practice provides a calm, supportive space where you can get clear answers without judgment. We work alongside you to replace mealtime stress with actionable strategies, empowering your family with the tools for lifelong health and confidence at the table.

I did not become a paediatric nutritionist just to talk about growth charts or rigid rules. I care deeply about this work because I see the massive hidden challenge facing families today. We are living through an escalating childhood nutrition crisis where kids are consuming plenty of calories, yet their bodies are left entirely nutrient poor.
When convenience foods and ultra-processed snacks crowd out real nutrition, it impacts a child's energy, development, and long-term health. But the solution is not about putting kids on restrictive diets. It is about education and empowerment.
My true passion is giving parents and children the practical tools they need to build healthy, lifelong eating patterns. You should not have to navigate this alone. My goal is to cut through the noise, take the pressure off your shoulders, and help your family build a confident, nourishing relationship with food that lasts a lifetime.
My mission is to equip parents with the structural tools to raise resilient eaters. In a world that feels increasingly noisy and overwhelming, Origami Nutrition exists to provide a quiet, clinical, and compassionate space to build health from the ground up. I am committed to helping your family navigate these hurdles, ensuring that your child’s health remains a steady constant in an ever-changing world.
