ITAVN recognizes that our relationships with food and nutrition are influenced by those around us as much as they are by personal choice. Therefore, at ITAVN, we practice a holistic and integrative approach to nutrition which involves both you, and your village.

Raising a Good Eater Workshop

Talking To Your Kids At Mealtime

Are mealtimes stressful? Do you feed any picky eaters? Then this 3-part workshop is for you!

How to foster pleasant mealtimes for everyone
What a good or competent eater looks like
Different parenting and feeding styles
Your roles when it comes to feeding and your child’s roles
Common feeding challenges for different ages and stages (birth to 18 years)
Pitfalls of pressure and what our intentions can tell us

What Our Clients Say

The Raising a Good Eater workshop series very much met my expectations! It presents critical information about parent/child attitudes, responsibilities, expectations and communication, which are all part of the foundation for good eating and good nutrition. Erika is an outstanding and passionate presenter, with a warm and welcoming approach who has a wealth of knowledge related to building healthy, trusting, eating dynamics amongst “feeders” and “eaters”

D.F.
MoCo Infant and Toddler Program
Erika was extremely helpful after the birth of my second child! Thanks to her, I lost a lot of my baby weight in a gradual and healthy way. I was impressed with her attention to detail and knowledge of up-to-date research. She is a calm and kind person. It was a pleasure to meet with Erika to talk about how to improve my eating and lifestyle habits.
