About the course

This course was designed for Early Childhood Professionals, with a focus on mealtimes with children between one and three years old. 

Meet Your Instructor: Natalia Stasenko (Pediatric RD).

I am a pediatric dietitian, an autism mom, former Head Start consulting dietitian, current guest speaker at Columbia University, and fellow at Georgetown University. Raising two neurodivergent girls led me on my professional path, as the information I needed was just not out there yet and this is what I am changing now. Join me in understanding young children's eating behavior and supporting them in building a healthy relationship with food.
