Episode Details

Did you know that the way your child eats can affect their speech and vice versa?

Melanie Potock is a Speech-Language Pathologist who became a pediatric feeding expert through her experience as a mom of a former picky eater. She uses her SLP expertise to help parents introduce new foods to kids, form healthy eating habits, and really lay the foundation for a lifetime of good nutrition.

I’m honored to host her here today on the Healthy Parenting Handbook!
