Meet the Founder

Somma's Yummies™ was born from a deeply personal place — watching a child grow and thrive, and knowing that every African child deserves that same flourishing life.

Our founder is a UNICEF-certified Infant & Young Child Feeding Counselor, a UK-CPD-certified Child Nutrition Advisor, and an active member of the Nutrition Society of Nigeria. She has personally helped over 108 mothers resolve challenges with picky eating and healthy weight gain in their children.

Her journey into child nutrition was never just academic. It was driven by a visceral understanding that the food a child eats in their first years of life determines the trajectory of everything that follows — their health, their learning, their potential.

She looked at the abundance of Africa's land — its nutrient-dense grains, its vibrant fruits, its powerful herbs — and asked: why are we not harnessing this for our children? That question became Somma's Yummies™.
