Hi, my name is Helen, I’m the resident nutrition and regulatory Manager here at HiPP. I have over twenty years of experience as a nutrition and regulatory expert, five of which have been within the infant nutrition setting. Before starting my role here at HiPP, I gained a range of experience throughout the food industry and have even worked for a short stint in the NHS. My journey into nutrition started when I was just 12 years old, my mum was referred to a Dietician after becoming ill. It was this experience that made me realise nutrition was the career path that I wanted to follow, I just loved the thought of food and nutrients being so impactful on someone’s health. After completing secondary education I made the decision to study nutrition at the University of Greenwich, where after four years, I graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree. However, I didn’t stop there, I made the decision to continue studying and achieved further Diplomas in Public Health and Sports Nutrition. Besides from nutrition and regulations, I am a mum of one who loves spending my time with friends and family. I aim to bring my nutritional expertise to expecting, new or third or fourth time parents, to help guide you through your little one’s infancy.
