Frequently asked questions about this product?
How long will it take to see results?
While every child is unique and it is impossible to predict how long it will take to see significant results, I will tell you that the majority of families begin to see positive changes and progress within the first few weeks. The class is designed to be fully implemented in 4-6 weeks, but there is no rush, you can go at your own pace and comfort level because you have access to all of the course materials from the moment you join. It is important to remember that progress is anything new your child does with foods or at a meal. Initial results may be sitting at a table together for meals without distractions or touching a food for the first time. While I don’t guarantee a certain amount of foods your child will eat, I do promise that you will at least drastically reduce mealtime stress and have a large variety of tools to help your child explore and eat new foods that work.
What if I don't see results?
While I think it is highly unlikely that you won’t see any results if you’ve applied the strategies and followed my suggestions, I will give a full refund in 30 days if you aren’t satisfied and can show me the work that you’ve done to put this plan into action in your home. My goal has always been to create an effective thriving community of parents.
How long do I have access to the course materials?
You will have access to all of the course materials through the class site for at least 1 year guaranteed, or until the program is closed. The transcripts, slides, and handouts are all downloadable and printable.
What ages is this course geared towards?
This class is beneficial for children 1 year to 11 years old, however transitioning to table foods and baby food aren’t covered specifically. When it applies, detailed strategies are shared for your kids 6 and under, as well as for children 7 years +.

I have 2 picky eater kids, both under 7. I saw a change from day one of listening to this course... I was able to start understanding what I could do differently, to make a difference with helping my kids. This course so far (I am only half way through it and love it) has changed daily feelings of dread, discouragement, worry, frustration and helplessness around mealtimes. The daily worry and then pressure I was directing toward my kids is gone around meals and it SHOWS in their behaviors at meals and snack and variety in trying new things. It's a slow process but it's happening.. I am extremely greatful and happier in the kitchen :))
This course was very organized and thorough. Everything was thought and planned out very well and addressed in a way that is useful to professionals, but also understandable to parents. I love that as an OT, I can utilize the printable resources to guide families.
Just wanted to share our progress and officially announce the end of this chapter in our lifes: 2 years ago, she barely ate any protein aside from ... milk? No veggies and the only fruits were mandarines and raspberries....so, basically her diet was merely cookies, plain crackers, milk and limited fruits. She was classified as an ultra extreme picky eater. Thanks to the time and dedication we were able to invest during the covid19 quarantine period, we have added a lot of new items to her menu like meat patties, chicken nuggets, pork chops, sausages, chicken wings, fried and boiled eggs, broccoli, lentils and we are now playing with carrots... she is already able to put a small piece of carrots on her lips... I'm sure in no time and without pressure she will be eating them. She is growing and enjoying life more with the extra energy she is getting. We just happened to cross the fear barrier for new foods, and since then the improvement has been exponential. There is light at the end of the tunnel, just be persistent, don't give up, it is hard I know, but if you put your soul and hart you will be compensated and the miracle will happen. Seriously, I though I would never see this kind of improvement but here we are enjoying a meal in a restaurant.
On a positive note, I do want to mention that J's OT is very impressed with all the progress he made with me just following the Mealtime Works program for the year prior to him starting official OT. The OT said that she is sure that J would have severe delays in multiple areas at this point if I had not implemented the Mealtime Works program with him, so I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for how you have helped me!
I am a seasoned pediatric occupational therapist, and I still feel like this course was helpful in giving me a better structure for how I complete feeding therapy with my clients. It helps combine a lot of the techniques that I already use into a more organized process. I also found it very helpful as a parent to give the information in a manageable and not overwhelming amount with “action steps” at the end of each lesson as homework.
