About me

I'm Jennifer. I've been practicing as a registered dietitian for almost 30 years. My specialty is pediatrics and breastfeeding support. However, if you choose to bottle feed or need to go back to work and still want to breastfeed......I can help. I am trained in baby-led weaning and can help you make your own baby foods. Store bought baby foods are expensive! Making your own baby food is easy and economical. I am a certified specialist in pediatric nutrition from the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics as well as a Fellow of the Academy. I have worked extensively with children who present with poor growth, type 1 diabetes, cystic fibrosis, NICU graduates and other nutrition concerns. I want you to be successful in providing your infant, toddler, and/or preschooler with the best nutrition possible. Picky eater? Don't worry. We can problem solve together. I am in the process of developing learning modules on my web site that you can view at your convenience. If you need additional information, feel free to book a session with me. I do take private pay clients as well as some Texas Medicaid insurance providers. I can provide super bills for you to submit to your private insurance.

Jennifer is a willing and conscientious person. I was having a casual conversation with her about my health as she was renting a car from Enterprise Rentals. She was true blessing. At the time I was experiencing a problem with my creatine count and my bp. Not expecting constructive feedback she suggested that I try the Dash Diet. My wife and I bought some books and as they say the rest is history.

Mrs. Jennifer Wilfong is very warm and knowledgeable during her sessions. My two year old daughter is a very stubborn eater and does like much variety. I have learned many different approaches to not "trick" her into eating but to get her engaged into eating new foods. My one year old is also benefiting from these tips as well. Wouldn't hesitate to call if I have future questions.
