With lots of children in the middle of navigating school camp, we thought we'd share some tips. School camp doesn't have to be stressful when your child has a restricted diet. With planning, familiar foods, and support, your child can enjoy the experience and feel safe around food.

We've been working on a little something behind the scenes, our Empower & Support Feeding Program is getting a revamp (a huge revamp)!

So far in the program we have seen some pretty amazing results such as:

Initial challenges: Down to a handful of foods, lack of appetite, food refusal, losing weight

Outcomes achieved: Increased food volume and variety, maintaining weight, recognisable appetite

There is lots of updates to come around this........... Thanks for sticking with us!

With feeding challenges (and let's face it, in parenting), progress isn't a straight line, and that's ok. Some days, your child may explore, taste, or engage with food... and the next day, they may not even want it on their plate. That doesn't mean you're moving backwards.

When your child is an extremely restricted eater, success might look very different from what others expect, and that's ok. Progress isn't just about "eating more". It's about building trust, regulation, and positive experiences around food, step by step.
