Transform Mealtime Struggles Into Peaceful Family Moments
An evidence-based parent's guide to turn mealtime anxiety into joyful eating experiences written by pediatric feeding specialists who work with these challenges every day.
Your child melts down when you serve anything green. Dinner takes two hours of negotiations. You've started making three different meals just to get them to eat something. Anything.
You're exhausted. You're worried. And you're wondering if you're failing as a parent.
Here's what we want you to know: You're not failing. Feeding challenges affect 1 in 4 children, and most have nothing to do with parenting.
Some children's brains process food differently. Others have sensory sensitivities that make certain textures feel overwhelming. Many develop food anxiety after one bad experience.
The good news? These challenges are highly treatable when you have the right strategies.
Sensory red flags most pediatricians miss (and how to address them)
