WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM YOUR POST-NATAL NUTRITION PROGRAM:

Session 1 — Feeding toddlers ages 12 months and beyond

This session is an interactive education session where we will view the Ellyn Satter video: “Feeding with Love and Good Sense”. You will then have a chance to discuss with our Spectrum Dietitians the feeding concepts presented in “The Toddler”. You will learn the what, when and how solid food should be introduced to your toddler to maximize their growth, development and healthy relationship with food.

Session 2 — How much is enough?

In this session you will learn everything you need to know about the energy and nutrient requirements of your growing toddler. We will also discuss tips on how to meet nutrient requirements for your 1-3 year old (and beyond!), while continuing to foster your toddlers’ healthy relationship with food. We will also discuss types of normal food behaviours you can expect from your child and how to handle them. Parents will also learn how their own eating behaviours and patterns affect their child’s relationship with food.
