Pediatric Dietitian helping concerned parents of frustrated kids go from stressful & disappointing meals to peaceful and purposeful family meals that leave the whole family feeling nourished and connected.

02/24/2026

Hi👋 I’m a pediatric dietitian & mom passionate about lowering mealtime stress for families, especially those who have been impacted by foster care & adoption!

Most people don’t realize how much stress they are putting on their kids at the table with pressure to eat certain foods.👀

They also don’t realize that stress can trigger the fight or flight response, which can cause fear or resistance to trying new foods… and of course, chronic stress leads to negative health outcomes.❌

My goal is to help parents use food as a tool to connect with their kids which will improve the overall health of their family. 💞

One of the easiest ways to do this is to serve family-style meals.🍱

This works because it gives kids autonomy and felt-safety which in turn helps them make better health choices.🛟

What is oral sensory seeking? It’s when a person seeks sensations in their mouth like chewing, sucking, or biting.🥤

This is fairly common in kids with ADHD, anxiety/stress, developmental delays, autism, and some nutrient deficiencies (like iron and zinc).🧬

Sometimes kids try to satisfy this sensory need by eating a lot, putting non-food items in their mouths (toys, paper, pencils, etc.), or even biting other people. 😲

The best way to help a child with this sensory need is to redirect them to things that are OK to put in their mouths by incorporating these foods into their meals/snacks!🚦

Depending on the child, they may seek certain textures like crunchy or cold temperatures. Others may seek strong/bold flavors like salty, spicy, or sweet.🔥

I hope these suggestions can guide you to help your sensory seeker, from a mom of a sensory seeker to another.💜

Let me know if you have found something that works well for your oral sensory seeker in the comments!💬🤗

Adoption is less about getting a child for your family and more about giving your family to a child.

It doesn’t take a special person. Yes, it does take willingness to learn a lot and get outside of your comfort zone, but parenting any child requires that.

There is loss that comes with adoption, but it’s so worth helping carry that burden with a child verses a child carrying the burden of never finding a family.

There are a lot of resources for international adoption. The best option is to pick an agency and go from there. We used and they were wonderful!

Feel free to DM with any questions!

No one warned you about feeding challenges that come with adoption, but they’re real & difficult. Just remember, you don’t have to do it alone...

Please share with other adoptive families so they know where to find evidence based and trauma-informed support!

I’d love to know if you’ve experienced any of these in your home and where you found help! Share below if you feel comfortable.🫶
