Fussy Eating
Research shows that 1 in 5 children struggle with eating at some point in time, but only 50% grow out of it. This parent workshop is based on The SOS Approach to Feeding, developed by Dr Kay Toomey. In this workshop, we discuss the major reasons why children won’t eat, and general strategies to implement in your home.
