Personalised, evidence-based nutrition support to help you make sense of nutrition, manage health concerns and make everyday eating feel easier.
Online nutrition consultations Australia-wide and face-to-face appointments in Ferntree Gully, with Clinical Nutritionist Rachel Surridge, based in Ocean Grove.
Nutrition concerns can look very different from one person to the next. You might be trying to understand ongoing symptoms, support your child’s nutrition, manage a health condition or simply feel better about the way you eat.
Digestive health, women's health, fertility and reproductive nutrition, allergies and intolerances, energy, nutrient concerns and other health goals.
Growth, nutritional adequacy, food variety, fussy or selective eating, and nutrition for active kids and young athletes.
Family meals, lunchboxes, snacks, fussy eating, different dietary needs, busy schedules, shared care and making food easier at home.
Sometimes you need an answer to one focused nutrition question. Other times, you need more time to explore your health, symptoms, eating habits or what’s happening around food in your family.
Choose from a focused Nutrition Clarity Session or a more comprehensive individual or family consultation. Follow-up consultations are also available for existing clients.
I’m Rachel Surridge, a Clinical Nutritionist and founder of Busy Families Nutrition.
I believe nutrition advice should be evidence-based, understandable and realistic enough to work in everyday life. Rather than chasing a “perfect” diet, I help individuals and families understand what matters for their health and focus on changes they can actually sustain.
Whether you’re dealing with ongoing symptoms, supporting your child’s nutrition or simply want some clarity around what and how you eat, we’ll start with where you are now and work out what makes sense for you.
Alongside online consultations Australia-wide, I offer in-person nutrition appointments at Balanced Life Health Care in Ferntree Gully, Melbourne.
Whether you’re looking for support with your own health, your child’s nutrition or family mealtimes, you can book a consultation that suits you.
Whether you have one nutrition question you’d like some clarity on, an ongoing health concern, or food has simply become harder than it needs to be, we can work out next steps together.
Explore the consultation options to find the level of support that’s right for you.
