Fiona Hinton has over 20 years of experience as a dietitian, working in a wide range of areas from NHS hospital wards to running her own private practice. During this time she has developed a special interest in pregnancy and children's nutrition. Fiona has worked with Annabel Karmel and Gina Ford, as well as training nursery staff in children's nutrition for the Scottish Executive. Fiona has also worked in corporate health, giving seminars on children and adult nutrition; developed and nutritionally analysed recipes; and collaborated on several nutrition books. After 6 years of answering nutrition questions on Gina Ford’s Contented Baby website, Fiona has her finger firmly on the pulse of parental concerns.
As a mum of three school-age boys, Fiona has first-hand experience of the issues associated with feeding young children, such as weaning and fussiness.

Fiona specialises in real-life strategies and practical suggestions to translate nutrition advice into food kids will eat.
