Support for Your Community Group

Many parents want clear guidance around feeding babies and young children, but often feel overwhelmed by the amount of information available.

Nutrition workshops can provide a calm and practical space where families gain confidence around topics such as starting solids, toddler feeding and balanced lunchboxes. Sessions can also support educators by building confidence in how they talk about food and nutrition with children in a positive and developmentally appropriate way.

These workshops are designed for schools, early learning centres and community groups who want to provide supportive, evidence based nutrition education for both families and staff.

Sessions can be delivered in person across the Sunshine Coast or online for organisations and parent groups.

Who These Sessions are For:

• Early learning centres and community kindergartens

• Primary schools

• Mothers groups and playgroups

• Councils and community programs

• Parent education events

• Staff professional development sessions

Sessions are tailored to suit the age group of children and the needs of the families attending.
