Skye Swaney

Prenatal and Paediatric Dietitian & Nutritionist

Hi, I’m Skye, an Accredited Practising Dietitian based in Sydney and mother of two little kids.

I started my career over 15 years ago working in children’s hospitals in Australia and the UK. But while nutrition and food have always been my thing, it wasn’t until I had my own kids that I really started to understand the pressure and struggles parents face when feeding little ones!

From eating well during pregnancy (when all you want to do is eat hot chips), to starting solids, to dealing with fussy eating (yep, even dietitians have fussy eaters!), the reality all seemed a lot more difficult than I imagined.

I desperately wanted to do everything I could to give my kids the best nutrition, but also felt confused and overwhelmed about how exactly to do that.

And I figured, if it’s hard for me, it must be a whole lot harder for parents who don’t have a degree in nutrition!

I started Ready Set Grow to help parents and caregivers at all stages by providing a judgement-free space and practical, realistic advice and support to give your little one the best start in life, whether you’re thinking about having a baby, pregnant or in the thick of feeding babies and toddlers.
