Susan Sommerville

I am a mom of two very different, enthusiastic kiddos. When my son was born, my life changed forever. But it wasn’t until my daughter was born that I received an in-depth education on the many trials and tribulations that feeding your baby can come with! Two very different babies, and SO much love for them both. My experience as new mom has fueled my passion to learn about and spread knowledge on how to feed our children with kindness, compassion, and responsivity. I completed my Bachelor of Science in Nutrition and Food Sciences and Integrated Dietetic Internship at the University of Alberta. I completed a physical education minor to fuel my interest in human physiology and adaptation to exercise! Before my focus on pediatric nutrition, I started my journey as a Dietitian with the focus on chronic disease prevention in adults. My main areas of practice included gut health, blood sugar management, and sport nutrition, all with the goal of helping my clients nurture a healthy relationship with food. After having kids, my interest naturally shifted towards infant and child nutrition. Starting solids and baby-led weaning is a beautiful opportunity to strengthen a positive feeding relationship between babies and their care givers. An area I love to research and blog about! I’m a member of the College of Dietitians of Alberta and a Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor. I am passionate about educating parents and supporting children to embrace and lean into their natural body cues, to help strengthen interoceptive awareness around feeding their bodies. We are born intuitive eaters! My goal is to allow children to continue with their natural attunement to their bodies needs, while challenging deep rooted family beliefs, thoughts and rules about food. My hobbies as a mom of two include going for nature walks with my husband and kids, and cooking creative meals for my family to try. In my free time I enjoy yoga, biking and an occasional glass of wine!
