Stress-Free Mealtime with the Guidance of NYC Child Nutrition Experts
Child nutrition isn’t only about improving the health of an individual child. It’s also about the wellbeing of families, communities, and even the nation. Child nutrition has a huge impact on a country’s overall health, levels of disease, education attainment, and even income. Healthy prenatal, baby, toddler, child, and adolescent nutrition directly affects how our children perform in school and life.
However, before we save the world with a healthy breakfast, we can work to save your family’s mealtime. Dinnertime can be battle time in many homes. Developing healthy eating habits from an early age, though, doesn’t have to be complicated.
Moreover, it’s hard to know what foods are the best for our families. Many people live in food deserts — with limited access to healthy choices. And others are bombarded by the sheer number of choices before them, all products claiming to be the latest, greatest nutrients for brain power, immunity power and more.
In our practice, we support families by helping toddlers, children, and teens modify unhealthy eating behaviors, become more adventurous in their food choices, understand the basis of nutrition and balance, and become autonomous in their eating.
Moreover, developing a healthy relationship with food and a high body self esteem can change the way we live our lives.
We look forward to working with you and your family.
