"Born to Eat emphasizes two of the most important aspects of child
feeding that also happen to be lacking in our society today:
connection and trust. Leslie and Wendy Jo combine their
professional experience with their parenting wisdom to remind us
that feeding our children is supposed to be a simple, fun, and
nurturing experience, rather than one of stress, guilt, and worry.
Born to Eat protects a child’s ability to self-regulate their
intake and nurtures their innate curiosity of food. For any parents
considering the baby-led weaning approach or an approach that
fosters a healthy relationship with food for the entire family,
Born to Eat is a must!" Lindsay Stenovec, MS, RD, CEDRD, owner of
Nutrition Instincts & founder of The Nurtured Mama Club
"The bottom line is that parents are working too hard to feed their
babies. It should be fun! Not intimidating. Let your baby explore
and learn from experience on their own time. And if you think about
it . . . the healthiest foods—foods in their whole, unprocessed
form—are actually the easiest to self-feed! Born to Eat is a
resource that every parent needs on their shelves." —Sidney Fry,
MS, RD, James Beard award-winning food writer and nutrition
expert
