We’re discussing whether or not it’s healthy to allow your child to continue to eat when they say they’re still hungry, but you think they’re past the point of being full.
CEO of Square Baby and registered dietician & nutritionist, Katie Thomson and I talk about ways parents can tune out societal pressures and instead tune into our own children’s food cues, way for establishing balanced and realistic expectations of our kids (and ourselves), and how we can nurture a healthy relationship between our children and food, right from the start.
I’m joined by feeding therapist and SLP, Rebecca Taskin. Together we discuss the developmental and psychological reasons behind why toddlers are often picky eaters and the strategies parents can employ to help gently push their children out of their comfort zone and into trying more foods. Plus, we offer guidance to parents who are worried that their child may have a feeding disorder and tips for how to identify the signs.
