The oldest daughter Milinda is always adorable and quite petite for her age. Milinda is active and growing healthy so Olya didn’t really think about her height potential yet, considering she and her husband are not the tall type. However, after discovering that her daughter stayed at 7 percentiles, she has engaged in more research about how to support better growth for children. Although genetics plays a key role in height increase, there are still some great ways that could help her petite kid and other kids grow taller and healthier, reaching their maximum height. Let’s find out more about her parenting tips.
Nutrition
A healthy and balanced diet with proper meals and a variety of dishes can provide decent nourishment to healthy development, overall well-being and height acceleration. An improper diet that allows too much sugary and junk foods may cause a stunt in growth and negatively affect your children’s health (a pizza or some chocolate can be consumed occasionally out of the menu, they are kids anyway).
Protein-rich foods should be provided to young kids. Being a vegan, her choices are eggs and various plant-based foods such as beans and quinoa. Beans are excellent sources of proteins, calcium, iron and B vitamins and low in fat content. For instance, Olya has posted about her black bean mushroom burger, which is mouth-watering, protein-rich and full of flavor. Quinoa is one of a few foods that is a complete protein, containing all nine essential amino acids that our bodies cannot make on their own. Dairy products such as yogurt and milk are also included.
Healthy fats, such as Omega-3 fatty acids are of special importance to kids’ development and bone growth. Sources of Omega-3 are fatty fishes (that salmon is the most common), walnuts and seeds. Other choices for healthy fats are avocado and almonds, which Olya seems to use regularly in her cooking recipes.
The berry varieties (blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, etc.) are amazing sources of vitamin C, antioxidants and phytochemicals that help to protect healthy cells from damage, promote cell growth, repair tissues and boost the immune system. Berries are also needed for the synthesis of collagen, which is responsible for bone health and density.
Leafy greens such as spinach, kale, arugula, and cabbage are all amazing sources of crucial nutrients, including minerals like calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium as well as vitamins like vitamin C, vitamin K, etc. All of these are beneficial for helping kids grow taller by enhancing bone growth and overall health.
Supplementing
While Olya’s trying to provide a healthy diet for her kids, sometimes she and other parents as well cannot be sure their kids are getting all the nutrition needed to grow. Kids may still lack some nutrients although they are eating properly, and there are picky eaters too. That’s why supplementing with the right daily dose is a great way to help kids get more sufficient nutrition.
The choice for her daughter Milinda is NuBest Tall Kids, chewable tablets with a tasty berry flavor that contain various beneficial nutrients to boost growth and overall health for kids aged 2 to 9-year-old such as Calcium, multivitamins and multiminerals.

Getting enough sleep
It is widely known for parents to ensure their children sleep early with long enough hours because we people grow more while sleeping. This is because human growth hormone secretion peaks during a deep sleep period at night. The National Sleep Foundation states that babies, children, and teens need significantly more sleep than adults do, ranging from 8-14 hours at different ages to support their proper growth. Parents should help kids establish a healthy bedtime routine, go to sleep early and on time (between 7 pm – 9 pm) so they can get enough sleep.
Exercising
Exercising regularly and consistently helps a great deal to naturally increase the release of human growth hormone and strengthen the bones and muscles of children. Yoga, volleyball, cycling, skipping, swimming are all amazing all-body exercises to stimulate the whole body muscles and flexibility. Her daughter Milinda usually engages in swimming and yoga with the whole family. Hanging and stretching exercises are all great activities that could improve children’s posture and overall wellness.
Spending time outside
While some parents may keep their children at home, Olya always actively allows her kids to go outside for a walk or get some fresh air. They are frequent travelers and also have many outdoor activities, which is great for kids to improve their health and well-being. Playing under the sun every day for a few hours is also a great chance for children to absorb vitamin D, which is a critical vitamin that helps your body absorb calcium and support your bone growth.
Olya Timoshevich, just like all mothers on earth who always care and opt for the best for their children, is paying much more attention to help her petite kids grow taller and healthier. Her tips are all helpful and can be great ideas for parents to assist their children. Knowing that each child will grow at their own pace, but it is essential that parents can provide sufficient nutrition, ensure their sleep quality as well as motivate their exercises and activities. Supplementing can be significant support for children to reach their optimal potential height and well-being.
