Hi there, I’m Jade. I’m a mother, Nutritionist, yogi and founder of Nom Nom Nutrition, now living in Mordialloc, Victoria with my husband Jeremy and our gorgeous bubs, Tara and soon-to-be born baby boy. And I’m on a mission to inspire others to make health a priority in their lives. As a practicing Nutritionist, I have seen my patients lives change from adopting an holistic whole foods diet customised to their needs. We only need to look around our own neighbourhood to realise that chronic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, heart disease and cancer are reaching catastrophic proportions, and through nutritional science research, we can prove how much our modern-day dietary guidelines are to blame. I am honoured to have you join me here, to not only present you with the research but teach you the healing power of nutritional medicine. Whether you are looking to further your clinical knowledge or wanting to deepen your own health journey, remember this: food that heals comes out of the ground, off a tree, or from an animal — it is just about learning which foods are best for you!

I treat you as an individual while supporting your whole being and aiming to make you feel comfortable and understood while identifying the underlying cause of your health imbalance. My role in our relationship is to educate you on how to best look after your own health, minimising symptoms of illness, supporting the body’s capacity to heal, and balancing your body and mind. Women’s Health issues is an area I am passionate about. From teenage years to menopause our body is an intricate force able to balance itself and when needed, with the help of nature’s products.
