About

Victoria Baxter, B.A., B.Sc., R.D.
Hi, I'm Victoria!
I am a registered dietitian based out of Calgary, Alberta, and the founder of Blossoming Beginnings Nutrition. I graduated from the University of Saskatchewan dietetics program in 2020. Inspired by science, nutrition, and a love of working with children and parents, I began my career as pediatric dietitian in the outpatient department of the Jim Pattison Children's Hospital in Saskatchewan. After moving to Alberta, I worked in multiple other inpatient and outpatient prenatal, neonatal, and pediatric roles within Alberta Health Services before starting my own private practice.
I specialize in pre and post natal, infant, child, adolescent, and young adult nutrition. Whether you and your baby were recently discharged from the hospital and need support with the transition, are working through childhood food allergies, introducing solids, struggling with a picky eater, conflict around food in the home, have a neurodivergent child with sensory and texture sensitivities, or maybe want to work on making quick and healthy meals while in university, I will support you in nourishing your family. I strive to create a non-judgmental and empathic environment, providing advice and strategies specific to each parent, child, and family.
