# Cariad Family Nutrition
Cariad Family Nutrition is a trauma-informed nutrition practice based in Bridgend, South Wales, run by Beth Preece, a Registered Nutritionist with over 20 years' experience in the NHS and children's charities. The business specialises in supporting families—particularly those with care-experienced children—to develop confident, healthy relationships with food.
Beth works with families facing real-world feeding challenges, from fussy eating to weight and growth concerns. Her approach is distinctly person-centred, combining practical nutrition guidance with emotional support tailored to each family's unique circumstances, priorities and budgets. Rather than prescriptive solutions, she helps families understand their children's food behaviours and make sustainable changes that actually fit their lives.
Beyond individual family support, Cariad works in partnership with organisations, schools, childcare settings and communities to improve access to affordable, healthy food and boost food literacy. This dual focus—supporting individual families whilst addressing systemic food poverty and inequality—sets the business apart from conventional nutrition practices.
What makes Cariad distinctive is its trauma-informed lens. Having adopted her own daughter, Beth understands firsthand how parenting, feeding and wellbeing are deeply interconnected. This lived experience, combined with her extensive professional background, enables her to offer both practical expertise and genuine empathy. She's not simply a nutritionist dispensing advice; she's a guide who recognises the emotional complexity of family feeding and walks alongside clients with understanding.
