When Every Day Feels Like a Struggle
So many parents tell me they feel like they’re just scraping by, with kids who are always getting sick, struggling to settle, or acting out because they’re not feeling their best.
Quick fixes might help in the moment, but they don’t get to the heart of what’s really going on. That’s why families often feel stuck in survival mode, wishing things could change, but not sure how.
This is where naturopathic care can make a real difference: looking at the whole picture to gently shift your family’s wellbeing so life feels calmer, healthier, and more manageable again.
Personalised Naturopathic Care for the Whole Family
Every family is different, and so is every path to feeling better. My naturopathic care supports both parents and children with tailored, evidence-based strategies that meet you exactly where you are.
I take a holistic view of each case, looking at sleep, stress, immunity, digestion, and behavioural challenges as part of the bigger picture. No band-aid fixes, just compassionate care that considers the whole household.
With a mix of herbal medicine, nutritional support, supplements, and simple lifestyle shifts, I create therapeutic plans designed to gently guide your family back to balance.
Because when kids feel better and parents feel steadier, the whole home starts to shift ~ toward more calm, more connection, and more resilience.
Wake Refreshed & Energised
Start the day with more calm and steady energy, so both parents and kids can handle what’s ahead without feeling on edge.
Tackle the day with Resilience
Less emotional overwhelm and fewer behavioural struggles, making everyday life feel smoother, more connected, and easier to manage.
Clearer Skin
Comfortable, healthy skin helps children feel at ease in their bodies and more confident in themselves.
Here’s how we’ll work together to support your family’s wellbeing.
Step 1: Initial Consultation
Understand & Assess
We’ll explore your concerns in detail, looking at body systems, diet, and lifestyle, along with any physical assessments if needed. From there, I’ll create a tailored starting point that feels doable and supportive for your family.
Step 2: Personalised Plan
Individualised Treatment Plan
You’ll leave your session with clear direction and receive a full written plan within 48 hours ~ including your wellness goals, therapeutic recommendations, and practical steps so you know exactly how to move forward with confidence.
Step 3: Ongoing Support
Grow with Support
Follow-up consults are usually within 2 weeks to check in on progress, fine-tune your plan, and keep supporting your family’s journey. Care continues to adapt as you do, with a timeline that suits your therapeutic plan.
Testimonials
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"I found that Dannii was very patient, informative and helpful. She went the extra mile to get down to the bottom of my problems with a non-judgemental approach. I am so grateful that her treatment plan not only helped me have a better sleep pattern, but that it has been a massive benefit to my family. My and my anxiety levels have stabilised. I feel amazing in myself.”
~ Michelle
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"Dannii is absolutely amazing! We took our son to see her due to his number of medical conditions and we were eager to find a solution that works. She took the time to listen and understand all of his needs, then formulate a plan forward and it has worked wonders for our son! One topic of discussion was having our son pick his own foods from the supermarket and she gave him a test to try and eat 30+ different plant based foods each week. He now keeps a list and is excited to try new foods just so he can “tell Mrs. Dannii”!!!
Highly recommend! Definitely worth atleast an initial consult, she’s amazing!”
~ Abbie
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"I have seen Dannii three times already and found her to be very open and down-to- earth. I found I was able to make changes to my life that improved my health, particularly around anxiety.”
~ Rebekah

FAQs
-
I offer support with everything from sleep struggles and skin concerns to low immunity, digestive issues, behavioural imbalances, and parent burnout. The best way to discover if working with me is a good fit for you, is to book a FREE discovery call. We can then chat about your health concerns (or your concerns about your child’s health) and how my services and therapeutic approach could benefit you.

I offer both in-person and online consults at flexible times to work around your schedule. Just click the “Book Now” button to see my current availability and choose a time that suits you.

Bloodwork can give us a really great insight into your current health. If you already have a referral from your GP, it is a good idea to have these done before your consult. Simply email me the results before your consultation so I can go over the analysis with you.
If you have blood results from anytime in the last 12 months, it can also be helpful to send these through to me as well, as this enables us to analyse changes over time.
In your consultation, I will also recommend any further testing where appropriate, so if you have not had bloods taken as yet, don’t worry, this can be part of your treatment plan. -
Not necessarily. If your child is too young or it’s easier for them to stay at home, we can still gather everything we need by speaking with you.
Some parents/carers also choose to have the child present for the first part of the consult, and one parent/carer takes the child for a walk or to a local cafe while the consultation continues with the other parent/carer. This enables me to assess the child in person while also understanding that it can be tricky for kiddos to sit in on a lengthy consultation. -
Absolutely! I understand family life. You're welcome to bring your child along or have them nearby during a telehealth session.
If you are planning to bring your child with you to your consultation, please let me know so I can have the colouring and toy box all ready for them to enjoy! -
Herbal medicine is incredibly beneficial as every blend is unique and caters for the individual needs, but it’s only one option. I’ll always offer various treatment strategies like nutritional supplements , lifestyle modifications and dietary advice that suits your preferences.
Worth a note, yes herbal medicine is often unpleasant tasting, however I do find that many patients find after 2-3 days of taking their herbs it is much more manageable. Partly because they become accustomed to the taste, and partly because they can identify the benefit it brings. -
I offer grounded, evidence-based care with a warm, practical approach that fits real family life.
I will always discuss your preferences for your treatment journey as I strongly believe that collaboration is key to a strong therapeutic plan. If something I suggest does not feel comfortable to you, please do let me know! At the same time, if you have been interested in trying something, let me know that too! -
Absolutely. We can create a plan that fits your budget and still makes a difference. There’s always something we can do to support your wellbeing.
-
That really depends on your individual health picture, the nature of your concerns, and how consistently we can implement your plan. Some patients feel a shift within weeks, while others need more time and support. Either way, we’ll walk it together.

Naturopathy
My favourite quote by Aristotle sums up the essence of Naturopathy...
"The whole is more than just the sum of its parts".
In Naturopathy, we look at all the parts of a person including their physical, mental, emotional and spiritual elements - knowing that all these parts are connected to create a whole and unique person. Naturopathic healthcare strives to understand the root cause of illness, and blends the wisdom from traditional medicine and modern science, to bring about holistic healing and wellness.
