BUT WE DADS & CAREGIVERS, TOO!
Feeding families is a LOT of work.
The planning, shopping, prepping, cooking, and cleaning. The pressure. The judgment. The endlessness. The comparison. The shame of asking for help. The dismissive advice from the pediatrician when you do ask for help.
If you’re a dad, a grandmama, or a caregiver who knows how hard it is to feed a family—and wants some much-deserved help—know that you are so welcome here.
Hey, I’m Kacie, a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) with a Master of Clinical Nutrition from UT Southwestern. I live in Dallas, TX with my husband and two kids, Teddy and Emilia, who can’t quite understand that making videos for lots of parents on the internet is actually my job! I’m also mom to a previously verrrry picky eater! (Read our picky eating story here.)
Nutrition is my thing, so of course, I care what my kids eat! But I started Mama Knows Nutrition because even with thousands of hours of nutrition education and experience under my belt, I am still just a mom trying to do my best for my family, like you.
We eat chicken fingers, Goldfish crackers, and ice cream. I have a never-ending, massive pile of laundry. And I forget to give my kids a bath half the time. (Wait, does it still count as forgetting when I just don’t feel like doing it?!)
My goal is to make feeding your family easier, make you feel less alone in it, and remind you that you are a great mom! So whether you’re stuck in a food rut, pulling out your hair over the never-ending cycle of meals and snacks, struggling to feed a picky eater who can’t even tolerate the sight of a new food on their plate, facing off with a carb-obsessed toddler each day, or really anything else, Mama Knows is here to help!
Get over 100 low-prep meal and snack ideas. Plus a list of the exact products I put in my Target cart each week!
