Dr. Katja Rowell has worked in child feeding for over a dozen years. She teaches the importance of responsive feeding and therapies to parents, pediatric feeding specialists, family support specialists, and childcare staff, and consults with corporate clients, nutrition education, and public health providers (and anyone that will listen!). She is the author of the book, Love Me, Feed Me, and co-founder of Responsive Feeding Pro, a digital learning platform for feeding professionals focused on a Responsive Feeding Therapy (RFT) framework for children with feeding and eating challenges. On this episode, she and Cristina discuss the foundations of Responsive Feeding Therapy Method and how it intersects with Ellyn Satter’s Division of Responsibility. We also dive into how to create a more peaceful eating experience for you and your children, letting go of the power struggle, and how to foster safety and connection at mealtimes.
