One Time or Ongoing Child Nutrition Counseling with Pediatric Nutritionists in NYC, CT, and FL

As parents, we want our children to thrive. One way to help them reach their full potential is providing adequate and appropriate nourishment starting the day our little ones are born.

Whether it’s the first decisions related to breast/bottle/formula feeding to the introduction of first foods, to the development of a balanced and expansive palate, parents everywhere want to provide the best nutrients they can to their children. Nutrition is the foundation for growth, strength, and long term health and wellness.

At Appleman Nutrition, we’re parents too. We understand how difficult it can be to struggle with an infant that refuses to nurse, or a toddler that is picky with their foods. Sometimes, it’s hard to know what’s normal and what needs increased support and attention.

Let Appleman Nutrition Help. Our nutrition counselors understand how it feels to want your child to eat complete meals, maximize nutrient density, and gain the vitamins and minerals they need to grow. If you would like help for your child, reach out to Appleman Nutrition Today at 917.885.4624, or fill out our contact form and we’ll be in touch soon to talk about your pediatric nutrition needs.

Appleman Nutrition has a team of pediatric nutrition counselors available to support your child at any point from birth to young adulthood. We join with parents to address many different issues and priorities, providing services that include, but are not limited to:

• Explain your infant’s, toddler’s or young child’s nutrition needs – including an understanding of overall caloric requirements as well as specific micronutrient needs
• Deliver concise nutrition and meal plan guidelines which consider family taste preferences and schedules
• Recommend supplementation when indicated
• Guide parents on the creation of a positive food environment at home and decrease stress, power struggles and arguments at meal time
• Assist with guided food exposures to increase the variety of foods eaten

• Provide recommendations for modeling healthy, balanced eating

We ally with parents and teach strategies that decrease stress at meal times with the goal of creating a healthy food environment at home which will serve as a foundation of health for years to come. If you’re a parent that has concerns about your child’s eating habits, nutrition intake, or needs at any age, our pediatric nutritionists are ready to help.

Being a parent is hard. Knowing how to provide our children with what we need can be a part of that. At Appleman Nutrition, we are here to help. We’re here for:

• Parents seeking recommendations for how to optimally feed their children.

At Appleman Nutrition, we know how important pediatric feeding is and how difficult it can be to navigate. Many of us have our own children as well, experiencing it first hand. We ally with parents to help them learn the skills, techniques, and strategies needed to decrease the stress and anxiety that accompany eating and the feeding challenges that occur as well.
