This webinar presented by noted clinical nutritionist, Deb Phillips, MS, LDN is the first in a series of Mind, Mood & Food webinars presented by The Center for Mind-Body Medicine and hosted by leading nutrition author, speaker and integrative nutritionist Kathie Madonna Swift, MS, RDN, LDN.This webinar was presented on October 25, 2017.

About the Webinar

Nourishment and nurture are inseparable for the newborn infant. As the infant develops, there are both needs that continue to have to be met, but the ways in which they are met start to differ. What an infant is fed as well as how an infant is fed influence brain dynamics and the development of a healthy individual and their relationship with food. An infant’s genetics influence this process and are influenced by this process. This webinar will provide readily usable recommendations for supporting healthy infant and child development.

Learning Objectives

The attendee will be able to…

  1. Describe the relationship between infant feeding and infant physical and emotional development
  2. Describe how parental and infant temperament influence feeding
  3. Identify foods and feeding activities that enhance or detract from healthy brain development
  4. Use 2 tools to support parents and care providers in helping children develop a healthy relationship to food so they are able to continue to nourish their brains and bodies as they grow.

CEUs are pending for registered dietitians.
