Sooooooo...what is MamaTuppa you ask?

I am an oral health therapist, have a fabulous and supportive husband with 2 adorable kids and a miniature schnauzer called Olive. We live in the beautiful city of Brisbane, Queensland and I am really passionate about good food and teaching our kids about how to prepare, cook and store healthy foods. I have loved Tupperware for as long as I can remember so these things just go hand in hand to help us in the quest for good health.
"But why start MamaTuppa and doesn't everyone just eat like we do?" My darling husband says to me over dinner of colorful salad and chicken. I stared at him! Literally just stared at him. He works in accounting so is pretty sheltered from poor dietary choices as he just eats what ever is in the fridge that I have bought. I had to stop, process what he said and think about my response before I spoke. I work in an industry plagued by the side effects of poor nutrition and poor oral hygiene habits. Combine these habits and I, unfortunately will be in business for life! 

We live in a world that can be so hectic, parents work full time and there are so many convenience food choices out there. And don't get me started on all the drink choices that are loaded full of sugar....sugary and acidic drinks are what really keep me busy at work. I love my job, but I just get sad when I see families that have numerous health issues due to sugary drinks and foods. I got into oral health therapy as a way to educate families on choosing foods and drinks that not only nourish the soul, but to help keep their teeth and gums disease free so they are able to actually eat and drink those nourishing and delicious foods and drinks.

So my brain wave of MamaTuppa was born. With the support of beautiful family memebers and friends, I decided to embrace my love of health, family, good food choices and Tupperware as a way to assist with educating families on good food and drink choices and providing tips and tricks for good oral and overall health.

Welcome to MamaTuppa and I look forward to joining me in the journey to good health!

The Creative Mama

Being an oral health therapist, my brain is wired to science, clinical and I find things are in black and white. Sometimes that can be a negative thing, sometimes it is positive.  I work pretty hard so I thought it was time to do something for me. Something that I wouldn't normally do. Something at night time that no children were invited to. After scrolling through Instagram I came across Triangle House and The Exploring Creativity Workshop. I contacted the lovely Caragh from Triangle House to find out a bit more about the workshop. Caragh answered all of my questions which was just fantastic! I decided to invite a good friend of mine, Kate, from Exult Design who is extremely creative! Perfect girls night out. We turned up at Triangle House and were greeted by the wonderful Pauline and ushered upstairs for delicious snacks and drinks. It was a lovely way to mingle and chat to Caragh, Pauline and other people who were also there for the workshop.  We started the worksh...

It Takes a Village to Help Mama to Raise a Baby

Since having babies, it has really hit home the phrase, "it takes a village to raise a baby". I am not going to lie, kids are full and hard work. I bet all other mamas and papas out there agree with me when I say that. Five years ago, I used to think I was tired after working full time and socializing. That sort of tired is nothing compared to working full time, socializing AND looking after very active 2 and 4 year olds! Being a mama is fabulous, but exhausting!  My First Mothers Days Classic Fun Run  - Exhausting but fabulous!   Raising these babies requires lots of help, love and support. Phillip and I both work full time and we could not raise these babies and work full time with our wonderful village around us. In February we took the plunge after much deliberation and decided to have an Au pair join us. We had no idea what we were doing, no idea on au pair manuals and thank goodness our first gorgeous big girl (as they are affectionately known as by o...
