LPG: Please explain briefly when and why you started Sprout Right.
LIANNE: I have been a nutritionist for 13 years, and always interested in pre-conception, pregnancy and healthy habits for children. It was re-inforced when I had my own children who are now eight and six years old. After having challenges of my own with my first child, I was empowered to help others with the hope that they’d have an easier time than I did. Sprout Right was born over seven years ago and we still help new parents every day through our DVDs, unique Mommy Chef cooking classes, consultations, webinars and the Sprout Right book.
LPG: What makes your approach to children’s nutrition unique?
LIANNE: I’ve lived it, know the challenges that new parents face and support them with a common sense approach. For those who are health savvy, it’s re-inforcing to them that they are doing it right, and for those who now want to eat healthy and set a good example to their baby or toddler, they learn what they need to know to do the best possible job. I have something for everyone. Even private cooking classes for those who don’t want to leave the comfort of their home, and have someone come and teach them how to make super nutritious food for their growing child.
LIANNE: Starting babies on super tasty food, with herbs, garlic, onions and spices, opens the palate and encourages the development of a really good eater. Bland, boring foods narrow the options of what you can feed your child as they grow. Colour, taste and texture are so important now and in the future. Don’t be scared to try new foods!

LIANNE: We are passionate about what we do. From meal plans to interactive workshops and webinars, to consultations, private cooking and group cooking classes, we’ll have you making healthy foods for the whole family in no time!
LPG: What goals do you want to achieve in the next 5 years?
LIANNE: I’d love to write more books, have a larger Sprout Right Headquarters and become a household name in family nutrition – teaching families to eat better, one bite at a time!
