Welcome to Eat Play Grow

We are an Auckland based nutrition and movement consultation service to support parents and caregivers of children aged from birth to three years. Through child-centred movement activities and healthy eating we can help you to build the foundations for your child to lead a healthy and happy life.

In the past it was thought that a brain developed only by the genes we were born with but now we know that a brain is only 15% developed by genetics at birth. This means that the further 85% of brain development will be determined by the experiences we have.

Positive experiences = Positive brain development.

We believe that if you spend the time now and provide your child in those critical first few years with positive nutrition and movement experiences you will help to build the foundations that will last a lifetime.

Research has shown the first few years are the most important time for your child to develop and grow and we will guide you to support your child through nutrition and movement.

This time is precious and we encourage you to start from birth - if your child is a little older then it is not too late to start. Through eat and play your child will grow into a happy, confident, capable adult.
