About this event

  • 1 hour 30 minutes

Feeding a child involves more than providing nutrients; it is an act of love. Whether providing for a newborn's very intense hunger needs or serving meals at the family dinner table, parents can use these times to connect and set positive habits around food and eating together.

• Breastfeeding and attachment

• Bottle nursing to enhance attachment

• Health benefits to mother and baby

• Oxytocin, the bonding hormone

• Maternal depression

• Introducing healthy solid foods

• Family meals promote connection

We hope you’ll join us!
