Our Lil' Story

Hey there! We’re so glad you stopped by ♡


LilNibbles started with two passionate women, one mum and one foodie, who both believe that feeding your little ones healthy, allergy-friendly food shouldn’t be complicated or take hours in the kitchen.


Taryn’s a dietitian and proud mum of one. As a dietitian, she knew how important it was to nourish her bub with the right foods. But between managing food sensitivities and the daily juggle of work and life, she wished there were easier, ready-to-go snacks she could trust.


“When my baby was diagnosed with cow’s milk protein intolerance (CMPI), I quickly realised how tough it was to find snacks that were healthy, allergy-friendly—and that she’d actually eat.” – Taryn


Through her work with families, Taryn became passionate about creating meals that helped parents spend less time stressing and more time enjoying mealtimes. She focused on tackling common hurdles like picky eating, allergies, constipation, iron deficiency and the over-reliance on ultra-processed foods, all while keeping kids nutrition front and centre. Her published journal article on the nutritional implications of the first 1000 days of life initiated her passion to ensure all kids have access to affordable, nutritious food.


Dana’s journey began with making healthy, gluten and dairy-free snacks for friends and family with dietary needs, which grew into a business that catered at events and provided families with home cooked meals. With her experience in creating nutritious meals for those with food allergies, she became a trusted expert in delivering safe, tasty and convenient foods that both parents and kids love. 


So, we teamed up, and just like that, our lil' dream came to life.


We’ve created a range of wholesome, allergy-friendly snacks made with real ingredients and no nasties. Whether your child has food allergies or you're just looking for something quick and nourishing to pop in their lunchbox, we’ve got you covered. Because we’re not just here to make snacks, we’re here to make your life a little easier and your child’s food more nourishing.


From first bites to picky phases, we believe every child deserves to explore new flavours and textures that help them grow, thrive, and fall in love with food. With our ready-made, dietitian-approved snacks, you can spend less time stressing and more time snacking (and maybe even sipping that coffee while it’s still warm).


We’re so excited to be part of your family's food journey.


With love (and lots of lil' bites),


 Taryn & Dana
