My Story

Hi, I’m Joanna!

Welcome to WYSEBITES, I’m so glad you’re here!

I’m a passionate cook and educator, and I created WYSEBITES (WYSE – What You Should Eat - Bites) to make mealtimes easier and more enjoyable, especially for families with neurodivergent children.

I know how challenging picky eating, sensory sensitivities, and busy schedules can be. That’s why WYSEBITES is all about making healthy eating simple, fun, and stress-free through workshops, recipes, and catering.

But more than that, I believe cooking should bring people together.

That’s why I started Sensory Bites, a community where you can learn, share, and grow alongside others who love food just as much as you do.

This is just the beginning, and I’m so excited to keep growing WYSEBITES and supporting even more families.

Let’s cook, connect, and make mealtimes joyful!
