Feeding Resources for Real-Life Challenges

Created by a Feeding Expert. Designed for Real Families.

Whether you're struggling with the bottle, feeling unsure about Baby-Led Weaning, or navigating long-standing picky eating with an older child you're not alone, and you don’t have to figure it out on your own.

These resources were created by a pediatric feeding therapist to give you clear, practical, evidence-based strategies that support your child’s eating at any age or stage, from anxious first tastes to expanding extremely limited diets. If you're looking for expert-backed guidance that actually works in real life (not just in theory), you're in the right place.

  • Turn Things Around: Parent Guide for Picky Eating

    A simplified version of my popular parent workshop, this guide gives you practical strategies, mindset shifts, and meal tips to start reducing stress and increasing variety at home. Perfect for parents just starting feeding therapy or looking for a reset.

  • Food Explorer Chart (Parent Version)

    Use this tool to track your child’s exposures, progress, and food exploration over time. Great for non-verbal children or younger toddlers who aren’t ready for sticker charts but need structured, visible progress.

  • Food Explorer Tracker (Child Version)

    Designed for older children and preteens, this points-based tracker encourages ownership and motivation. Great for kids who enjoy incentives and want to track their food wins along the way.

  • Toddler Try-It Tracker (Sticker Chart)

    For little ones who love praise, progress, and sticker rewards! This chart helps toddlers stay engaged and encouraged to interact with new foods at their own pace without pressure or bribing.

  • Mealtime Scripts

    What you say at the table matters. These simple, pressure-free script swaps help you support your child without triggering resistance so meals feel calmer and communication stays clear.

    A flexible, easy-to-follow visual guide for introducing solids alongside bottles or breastfeeding so you can feel confident in your baby’s routine without second-guessing every meal.

  • Food Chaining Chart

    Use this food chaining chart to expand your child’s diet step-by-step starting with foods they already like and gently building toward new textures and flavors.

  • Intro to New Foods (1-Year-Olds)

    This playful, pressure-free guide is made for the busy toddler stage offering realistic tips, sample routines, and fun ways to introduce variety without battles or bribes.

  • Food Actions

    This chart breaks down different ways your child can interact with food because “trying” doesn’t always mean chewing and swallowing. Great for tracking small wins and building comfort at any age.
