About The Growing Healthy Babies Programme
Hi!!
I am Vicky of The Happy Healthy Unicorn. I am a mother of two children, one of whom was diagnosed with level 3 autism six years ago. I am also a certified naturopathic nutritionist, trained in various disciplines helping families to achieve optimum health and wellness via nutrition and natural approaches.
I am so happy to have you here!
I created this programme out of love for other parents, and the children I work with, based on research, education and my own personal experience of having a child with special needs.
Knowing what I know NOW would have saved years of pain and suffering for my daughter and my family. This is the information that we should ALL be given before conception. The information that would save so many of our children going on to have struggles and chronic health conditions. Let's spend time PRE conception setting your baby up to be resilient, rather than treating the imbalances of a chronic health condition after.
The science is there, but unless you are writing a thesis or are just a geek who loves science like me, you might find it hard to untangle, and it will likely leave you more confused. This program was designed to break down complex information and help you make the correct choices to support you and your baby's body for optimal growth, development and outcomes.
