About TCN

Hi, I'm Kelly!
I’m a children’s education nutritionist and primary teacher based in the north-western suburbs of Melbourne. I’m a passionate educator with over 25 years of teaching experience. I’ve combined my love of learning to bring curious food education to school communities. I facilitate positive food learning experiences with children and consult with school communities and the education sector.
My food education programs and workshops are evidence-based, equipping adults and children with a toolkit of food skills and literacy in order to embed it in their everyday lives.
My special interest in child development, feeding behaviours and developmentally appropriate health messages help schools and parents navigate the world of nutrition practically and with success. My lens towards curiosity with a touch of creativity makes food education become practical and achievable for all.
