Find peace at the dinner table- Raising happy healthy eaters

In collaboration with the stunning New Shoots Sunnynook children's centre, we are proud to offer the community a practical introduction to raising a happy healthy eater.

Imagine a world where children grew into adults who ate well and loved their bodies? Imagine if your child would devour fruit and veggies with delight? Or if your child turned to you with a half-eaten muffin and then tells you they've had enough and are full? What if you could try out new foods and explore different tastes and your child could enjoy trying them? Imagine letting go of the stress and worry at mealtimes.

Raising young children to eat well and enjoy food is often easier said than done. Information on what kids should be eating is plentiful, but that doesn't always translate into what our little ones want to eat - let alone a good vibe at the dinner table!

Developing a positive relationship with food and our bodies is key to achieving overall health and wellness. Children who are confident in their bodies, who eat a variety of food, and enjoy being at the table, have skills that help them experience both health and happiness.

Over the years, we have helped hundreds of families bring peace and joy back to their table.
Our workshop helps you to think beyond nutrition, to creating mealtime routines that nourish hearts, minds and bellies!

The workshop includes:
* Top tips for feeding happy thriving young children
* How to avoid common mealtime frustrations- fussy eating, food refusal, throwing, all-day grazing!
* How to foster a good body image from a young age
* Nurturing your child's body confidence and autonomy
* Fact-check common misconceptions about family nutrition.
* How to manage those so-called "forbidden foods" such as sugar and high-fat foods.
As a bonus, you have an opportunity to problem-solving your family nutrition challenges with New Zealand's leading child feeding specialist and paediatric dietitian Rachael Wilson who will be on hand to answer any questions you might have.
If you'd like practical tips & evidence-based solutions for reducing mealtime stress we hope you'll consider joining our workshop. We would love to see you there!
