Step 01

Because feeding shouldn't be a daily battle — and healing shouldn't feel overwhelming.

Whether you're just getting started or feeling stuck in the cycle of picky eating, these simple, research-backed guides will help you feel more confident at the table and in the kitchen. Created by a mom, feeding specialist, and pediatric wellness practitioner — for moms who want better for their kids.

I'm Lena — I help families overcome feeding challenges, gut issues, and developmental delays using a natural, root-cause approach.

What Changed Everything

What Changed Everything

Years later, becoming a mom shifted everything.

I knew I didn’t want my son to grow up navigating the same health challenges I did — or feel helpless in his own body. That commitment led me to dig deeper into functional health, gut healing, the power of light and circadian biology, and how deeply our environment influences childhood development.

As a speech-language pathologist and feeding specialist, I began to connect the dots between gut health, feeding difficulties, behavior, and developmental delays. I started helping families who felt just like I once did — overwhelmed, confused, and determined to find answers that actually worked.

Healing is not only possible, you can make it happen and change your child's life forever. 

My Work Today

I work with families whose children are facing:

* Picky eating or total food refusal
* Gut issues like bloating, constipation, or chronic illness
* Developmental delays or sensory processing challenges
* That “something’s not right” feeling — even when everything looks “normal” on paper

Instead of just managing symptoms, I help parents uncover the why behind their child’s challenges.

Using a blend of developmental science, nervous system regulation, microbiome support, and simple lifestyle shifts, we work together to restore balance — in the body and at the table.

At the center of this process is my BLOOM™ Framework — a compassionate, step-by-step roadmap designed to help children become adventurous eaters by addressing the real issues affecting their appetite, digestion, behavior, and connection to food.

Because picky eating is rarely just about the food.
And healing always starts at home.


Why I do this work — and who I do it for


Official Bio

Meet Paulina (Lena) Livinsky — a holistic child wellness practitioner, pediatric speech-language pathologist, and feeding specialist on a mission to help children thrive from the inside out.

With over a decade of clinical experience, Lena combines speech and feeding therapy with a science-backed, whole-body approach to child development. She’s the creator of the BLOOM™ Framework, her signature method designed to support children with feeding challenges, gut health concerns, and developmental delays by addressing root causes — not just symptoms.

Lena works closely with families ready to make meaningful shifts in their child’s nutrition, environment, and lifestyle. Whether it's expanding a picky eater’s diet, healing the gut, or supporting a child’s sensory and speech development, she brings together real food, microbiome health, and nervous system awareness to unlock each child’s full potential.

Through nutritional guidance, detox support, and family-centered education, Lena empowers parents with the tools they need to raise resilient, radiant kids. Her work embraces both science and intuition — blending clinical insight with deep respect for the child’s unique biology and signals.

Lena is also the voice behind The Livin’Sky Podcast, where she shares stories, science, and support for parents navigating early childhood health. She’s currently deepening her training in pediatric sleep and developmental specialization, always committed to responsive, evidence-informed care.

Because when children are well-fed, well-supported, and truly seen — they bloom.

This all started because I wanted better for my son.

After growing up with my own health struggles, I thought I understood what healing looked like. But when I became a mom and my child faced challenges of his own, everything shifted. I wasn’t just looking for answers anymore — I was fighting for him. And in that fight, I discovered a whole new way to support the body, the brain, and the child as a whole.

That love — the fierce, protective kind only a parent understands — is what drives everything I do.

It’s the same love I bring into the care of every child and family I’ve had the honor of working with over the years. The kids I’ve supported aren’t just patients to me. I carry their stories, celebrate their wins, and hold space for their struggles as if they were my own.

Because I get it.

And I believe every child deserves the chance to thrive — not just survive.

From one mom to another, I’m here to walk this path with you.
For your child. For your peace of mind. For their future.

MY WHY

In a Nutshell

Let’s Get to know each other

My sun and moon are both in Scorpio, and my rising sign is Leo (yes, I’m that person who does want to know your birth time). I’ve visited 33 countries — even took a 24-hour flight to New Zealand — but I still clutch the armrest at the slightest turbulence.

I love big mugs of tea, organizing for fun, and snuggling with my son, husband and dog. I’m fueled by love and connection, and I believe healing starts with the little things we do at home — even if we’re in fuzzy socks while doing it.
