A Holistic Approach to Childhood Eczema & Food Allergies

I help you make sense of your child’s nutrition and understand the connections between their gut, skin and immune health. Together, we’ll take a root-cause approach to explore what may be contributing to their symptoms and build a personalized plan that fits your family’s life.

Let’s Get Started

Personalized Support for Your Child and Your Family

1:1 Holistic Support for Childhood Eczema & Food Allergies

You’ve read the advice and tried making changes, but you may still be wondering what matters most for your child.

Our work starts with understanding their health history, nutrition, digestive concerns and daily routines. Together, we’ll explore factors that may be contributing to their symptoms and create a personalized plan with clear priorities.

Depending on your child’s needs, your plan may include nutrition changes, allergy-friendly meal ideas, lifestyle adjustments and targeted supplements when appropriate.

We’ll work at a manageable pace, review how things are going and adjust your plan along the way.

Let me introduce myself…

Hi, I’m Shannon

When my son developed eczema and food allergies, I found myself reading labels, researching late at night and wondering what else I could do to support him.

I wanted to understand the bigger picture. How did his nutrition, digestion and immune health fit together? What was worth exploring, and where should I start?

That experience deepened my interest in children’s health and shaped Sweetroot Holistic Health.

Today, I bring together my nutrition education and experience as a parent to help other families work through those questions. My goal is to help you understand your options and turn that understanding into practical steps for your child.

How We’ll Work Together

Start With a Conversation

A free 15-minute discovery call gives us a chance to discuss what you’re looking for, answer your questions and see whether my support is a good fit.

Understand Your Child’s History

We’ll look at their nutrition, symptoms, digestive health, food restrictions and daily routines to identify priorities for support.

Create Your Personalized Plan

We’ll bring together practical nutrition, laboratory testing, and lifestyle recommendations, and work through how to fit them into family life.

Review and Adjust

Follow-up appointments give us time to discuss changes, work through challenges and adjust your plan as we learn more about what works for your child.
