About this event

IMPORTANT: This session is for parents and carers in the Illawarra and Shoalhaven only.

For many parents, meal times are a battle - but they don't have to be. Picky eating and other challenging mealtime behaviours are a normal part of childhood development and there are lots of ways to make this stage easier for you and your child. Come and learn how you can take some of the stress out of feeding your child and how to help them grow to be a healthy eater.

This session is designed for parents with children between the ages of 12 months and approximately 5 years.

Topics covered include;

  • What and how much food children need
  • Learning to eat
  • Picky eating
  • Responsive eating
  • Feeding roles - parent and child
  • Tips to help your child grow to be a healthy eater
