'Dear Eve, thank you for your wonderful presentation last Wednesday evening! I'm sure everyone enjoyed the interesting (and suprising) information you discussed as much as I did. We look forward to seeing you again for another presentation perhaps next year.'

"Very interesting discussion – good to hear others' ideas."

'A good springboard for healthy discussion.'

'I liked the ability to discuss personal situations in relation to meal habits.'

"Received great information , great to share everyone’s stories.."

'I got a lot out of it – the idea of offering them ( the children) our food and that when they are hungry they’ll start to eat it. I won't be making spaghetti bolognaise for my daughter every night any more.'

"I feel so relieved that my toddler is eating a healthy diet and learning good eating habits now before it's too late."

'Your lectures have helped me immensely and I would highly recommend them to anyone with a young child that isn't feeling confident about what they are eating, when they are eating and how much they are eating.'

'An added benefit is that I'm also making sure Mum and Dad are eating better as well.'

"Thank you Eve!
My son (who is just 5 years old) has been a fussy eater most of his life until I changed the way I approach our mealtimes based on what you taught me. After an initial settling in period he has begun to eat a massive variety of foods and mealtimes are no longer as stressful. I cook only ONE meal now, for both of us. As a single parent that significantly increases my availability and time of an evening. The lessons I learnt are invaluable in helping me to confidently feed my child in a healthy and stress-free way.
Now that you've shown me how, it's not even that hard!
Thanks again for an educational and extremely useful session." -Alena from Maroubra

Hi Eve,

I attended one of your talks and just wanted to let you know how helpful it has been. My 15 month old was only eating savory food if disguised as a sandwich and was reluctant to eat finger food and vegies.

Since your talk, I have been making sure that we eat with him, have been presenting a variety of foods to him at each meal and allowing him to choose what he wants to eat. Inevitably he starts with his favourite food and when it runs out, he has proceeded to try the other available food.

Last night he started with sweet potato, followed by some roast beef, then started to point at the salad bowl and for the first time enjoyed tomato, nibbled at cucumber, experimented with a taste of lettuce, touched a snow pea and licked a piece of carrot. To date, he has turned his nose up at the texture of grains (cous cous, rice etc.), but asked to try the rice on my plate and then went back for more. Finally, he requested the honey dew melon we were eating as dessert - breakthrough!!

He is really enjoying the social aspect of eating and isn't even asking to get out of his high chair. If anything, he is starting to worry me that he is going the other way. He just doesn't seem to stop eating unless I remove him from the table.

Thank you for your advice. At the time, I really wasn't convinced that it would work, but he has changed his habits soooo quickly.

Kind Regards,
Leanne Arber
