Feeding conversations don’t have to be all-or-nothing.

You can believe babies need good nutrition and recognize that early meals are also about learning. Curiosity opens the door to better questions:

✨ What is my baby learning?
✨ What skills are developing?
✨ How can I support both nourishment and confidence at the table?

When we stop arguing over “right” and “wrong,” we can focus on what the research and what our babies are actually showing us.

I’d love to answer your questions live. Whether you’re wondering about choking, purées vs. finger foods, nutrition, or responsive feeding, bring it!

“My baby bites the watermelon… then what? 🍉”

This is such a great question.

My course isn’t about memorizing how to cut and serve every single food at every age. There are some excellent apps that already do that.

What I teach is everything that happens around the food.

✨ How to build trust at the table.
✨ How Circle of Security and attachment theory influence feeding.
✨ How babies learn to eat through connection, exploration, and responsive caregiving.
✨ How to support lifelong feeding wellness—not just today’s meal.

And yes… I absolutely answer questions like,
“My baby bit the watermelon… now what?” 😂

That’s exactly what my live Friday Feeding 101 Q&As are for this summer.
