"We are so busy. I want real-life strategies that actually help."
Lian - Mom of a 9-year-old with picky eating
"I wanted to let you know what a difference your teaching has made to our son Simon's eating habits. We kept up with your methods and he is now eating so many more foods. We've been able to add veggie dogs, veggie chicken nuggets, multiple types of potato/fry options, and most amazingly, baby carrots, snap peas, cucumber, and corn on the cob! He's also far more willing to try everything on our plates. It truly feels like a miracle."

"No one gets it."
Having a child with feeding difficulties can feel very lonely and isolating.
Parents frequently report feelings of isolation, fear, and burnout when facing their child's feeding challenges. Other parents and family members often don't understand the struggle of having a child with feeding issues.
You are not alone.
The Calm Table is taught by Nicola Pratt, Feeding Therapist & Speech-Language Pathologist
I believe in a sensitive, relationship-focused feeding approach which promotes self-regulation and respects a child's autonomy and feeding differences.
With parent support and education, families report feeling more confident and empowered to manage feeding challenges and mealtimes.
I'm here to help.

Sarah - Mom of a 2-year-old with feeding difficulties
"You’ve been the most helpful resource to me throughout this journey - I truly couldn’t imagine navigating mealtimes without your support."
Maria - Mom of an 11-year-old with feeding challenges
"I've read your lessons and they've been so helpful. You've written them in a way that made me reflect on how I approach things mentally and use feeding strategies with Ryan. It's been going well and we (child and parents) seem to experience less frustration. I'm really amazed and I'm so grateful for your resources!"
Roberto - Dad of an 18-month-old with food refusal at dinner
"She is doing so much better with all your tips and tricks!"
What parents are saying..
"I started to apply some of the things I learned about and it's going much better."
"Already having more successful meal times"
"Your strategies and tips were very helpful and I am noticing some big improvements with my daughter already!"
"Just within a few days I'm seeing huge improvements. I really can't believe it!"
"I'm so tired of the advice and judgement from everyone."
When kids have feeding issues, people judge and offer unsolicited advice: friends, teachers, grandparents, relatives, even spouses. Please try to remember that you are the expert on your child and no-one knows your child like you. This course is here to offer real-life strategies to guide and support you and your child on your feeding journey. I'm here to empower you with the tools you need to best help your child.
I've got your back.
