Infant Nutrition and starting solids
If you have a group of friends or patrons with burning nutrition questions and concerns, let’s connect to set up a group workshop. Some of the workshops I offer include:
Infant Feeding
A fun and interactive class where we review the latest recommendations when it comes to infant feeding and starting solids. In this workshop we talk about how to determine when is the right time to start solids, nutrients of greatest concern for babies, how to meet baby’s nutritional requirements, baby led weaning and making your own baby food. We’ll even get our hands dirty making some homemade baby food for your little ones to try. We will discuss ideas and sample menus for different ages and stages and appropriate resources will be provided.
Picky Eaters: Toddler and School Aged Children Nutrition
Know of some families who have concerns about how their Toddler or School Aged kids are eating, growing and possibly their very selective eating habits. Let’s get together and chat about Childhood Nutrition. In this session we talk about growth, development and nutrition for these ages and stages. We will also cover how to prevent picky eating, how to deal with picky eating that is causing great frustration at the table and how to help a picky eater choose a greater variety of foods to meet their nutritional requirements.
Custom classes
Have a specific Nutrition question in mind and would like me to speak to your group? I offer custom classes, based on your groups needs. Contact me for further details.
In-Person, Online, or Phone Meetings
*PLEASE NOTE: In light of COVID-19, all nutrition coaching sessions will be completed virtually (either online or by phone) until further notice.
Initial Assessment
In our first session we will explore in detail the reason you have chosen to come for a visit. We will also go over your child’s medical history (any conditions, relevant bloodwork, medications and growth chart) in addition to family eating habits and diet history. There is no judgement here, this information is reviewed to help us create realistic and sustainable goals to help make feeding your little ones less challenging and more rewarding.
Length: 60 mins
Follow-up Appointment
During our follow up sessions we will review how things are going with regards to the goals set, chat about any setbacks and where you feel things are working or not working. We will discuss how to make adjustments to the plan or create new goals to keep up with progress to date.
Length: 30-60 mins
