Making it easier to feed your kids

Krystyn Parks, M.S., R.D., I.B.C.L.C. Pediatric Dietitian and Lactation Consultant in Lake Forest, california

I am a pediatric dietitian and lactation consultant with years of experience working with premature and term infants. I focus on evidence-based strategies that help parents start their children on the right track. I can help you with all things feeding: starting with breastfeeding or formula feeding. As a semi-picky eater myself, I am able to work with parents on how to expand their children’s palate. I have 2 young boys, so I can blend evidence-based nutrition with real life.

Krystyn at Feeding Made Easy has made the transition to solids such a breeze. She's realistic with feeding kids and understands that we're all busy and things don't always go according to plan. Her advice has helped us feel more confident feeding our daughter and took away the guilt around me occasionally feeding my 7 month old avocado 3 days in a row. We now go into the week with a game plan and have more varied meals because her meals often match ours. Thanks for your help!
