Morven, a qualified nutritionist, and experienced chef. She is determined to help parents everywhere with their little fussy eaters, giving them the tools, knowledge, and confidence they need to get their child eating a more balanced diet that includes plenty of veggies!
Recognising the challenge of having a toddler with food tantrums, Morven created FussEat to work with new parents, supporting them with advice, strategies, and recipes to build healthy eating habits.
During the pandemic, she provided free cook-alongs to further support families of fussy eaters. Morven would like to see systems change, with veg recognised as key to our overall wellbeing. Morven runs a program called the F.E.D-method which stands for; Familiarise, Educate, and Develop. The F.E.D-method is a tool that helps parents become familiar with common reasons why kids don't like to eat while helping those kids become familiar with new foods long before they are served up as part of a meal. Gives some basic child nutrition to encourage parents to keep going, while also sharing some easy kitchen hacks to help fit the meal prep into their busy schedules. And finally, Sharing the importance of developing coping strategies to overcome any roadblocks they might face, and how parents can sidestep the teatime tantrums that are bound to occur along the way while developing support networks that will help their child see healthy eating as the "social norm". Since becoming a veg advocate Morven has begun a Masters on Gastronomy to further her understanding of all the cultural, social, geographic, religious, political, economic, environmental, and historical reasons that shape the way we eat. As a Veg Advocate, she is keen to spread awareness and share her experience. “I have made it my mission in life to spread the word on veg. It is my opinion that good nutrition is the key to, not only, lifelong physical health but also mental and social health. I know if more people had the tools and confidence to get started they could love the experience as much as my daughter and me.”
