About Family Centered Nutrition Science
At Family Centered Nutrition Science, we believe nutrition care should be evidence-based, compassionate, and family-friendly. We provide individualized nutrition counseling for pregnancy, postpartum, infants, toddlers, children, and families, helping clients navigate everything from gestational diabetes and pregnancy nutrition to picky eating and starting solids.
We're a small but growing insurance-based private practice serving Pennsylvania and Delaware through telehealth, with limited in-person appointments in King of Prussia, PA. Our philosophy emphasizes practical, sustainable nutrition recommendations rooted in the best available evidence - not diets, fear, or perfection.
We're looking for a Registered Dietitian who shares these values and would enjoy helping families during evenings and/or weekends. This is a great opportunity for someone who already has another role and is looking to gradually build a small private-practice caseload.

Approximately 1–5 counseling hours per week to start
