ADULT EDUCATION CLASSES

"Daniella Knell and the education she offers to families has been a wonderful addition to our Baby and Me support group at Saint Alphonsus. Many families feel like they are navigating through the world of food allergies alone but will find comfort when they discover the services Daniella has to offer. She offers a wealth of information on products and is always so generous with giving out samples and coupons. When one of our families discovers they have a child with food allergies, Daniella is the first resource I recommend!"

ONE-ON-ONE CONSULTING

"When we found out our daughter had developed the milk and soy protein allergy we were told that I would have to stop breastfeeding. Breastfeeding for at least the first year was very important to our family and I was determined to make this happen even if it meant I had to eat nuts and berries for a year! The whole process seemed overwhelming until I found Daniella. She came to our home and helped us find substitutes for food we loved and taught me how to order in restaurants, cook and eat like a normal human being! Her knowledge and expertise made it possible for me to continue to breastfeed despite allergies and what the doctors told us was impossible."  Lindsay O.
