Picture of me and my children during a summer holiday

Babies are born preferring sweet tastes, and often their introduction to solid food begins with the sweetness of fruits or grains. Most kids love sugary snacks and drinks. An occasional sweet treat probably won’t do any harm, but many children eat far too much sugar each day, setting them up for health problems now and in the future.

Parents don't always know what is and is not healthy for their kids to eat, and, more importantly, why. Hopefully, this site can serve as a guideline to educate parents more about the effects of unhealthy food and bring suggestions to healthy alternatives.

It’s impossible to be the perfect parent, but I believe that offering healthy, nutritious food is one of the best things we can do for our children. I am a huge advocate of taking the time to look for quality ingredients and then providing fresh, unprocessed food; nutritious food – real food.
