Tuck Shops, Grazing & Supplements: Are We Getting it Wrong as Parents?
This week We are tackling some of Your questions on Baby Brunch!
Minerals & Supplements: Do kids actually need them? We broke down the essentials and how to safely navigate the supplement aisle.
The Tuckshop & Long School Hours: Between sports, extra classes, and long days, kids are burning massive energy. How do we tackle tuckshop temptations and pack enough fuel to keep them going?
The Holiday Disruption: School holidays and changing routines are a major concern for parents. When the structure of the school week vanishes, eating habits often get interrupted. We share tips on how to keep the peace when routines get disrupted.
Dietitian, Jade Seeliger, joins us this week to answer these questions, and more.

ABOUT JADE SEELIGER
I’m a business owner, registered dietitian, and mom to three energetic, constantly-hungry kids. My perspective on nutrition shifted profoundly when I became a mother and realised firsthand that “healthy” doesn’t always come easily when life gets busy.
I’m the founding member and director of Nutritional Solutions, a practice I co-founded in 2010, which has grown over the past 16 years into the largest private practice of dietitians in South Africa. Alongside my clinical work, I consult to a number of industry associations, including Dairy South Africa, Pork South Africa, and Avo South Africa, providing evidence-based guidance and practical nutrition insights.
Online, I’ve built a community of over 65,000 followers on Instagram and run several successful online programs designed to support women and families with eating well, feeling confident in their bodies, and prioritising their well-being within full, demanding lives.
My work is grounded in making nutrition practical, simple, and family-friendly. I’m passionate about celebrating beautiful food and encouraging a balanced approach to health, one rooted in real, whole foods and perfectly imperfect eating, rather than restriction or calorie counting.
