CAST 059 Fussy Eaters, Baby’s First Foods, Gag Reflexes & More
Since this episode was released I’ve had so many mums tell me how helpful the information was. Seeing as Mandy is so passionate and is a wealth of knowledge on the topic of fussy foods, dysphagia and fussy eaters this episode just had to be included in the Best of Series. Mandy also shares her wisdom around oral development and how it relates to speech and sensory development which is something that I also share with my mum’s in practice. It’s a “must listen to” episode where we talk about….
- when and how to introduce first foods,
- why kids might be fussy with food,
- what to do about it,
- clear signs for when to seek help and there are so many fabulous links and resources that Mandy shares in this episode.
I do my best to find passionate experts but honestly, Mandy had so much passion for what she does that it was such a joy to have her share on Mum’s The Word. Because it was full of gold, the episode runs over my (suggested) 40 mins – well let’s be honest, most of them have so far!! as clearly my guests are so passionate about helping other mums and its obvious we all love what we do.
Please do share this episode and it’s links/resources with those around you struggling to get their little ones to eat or enjoy food. Its such an important topic and this episode highlights once again, that we are all in this parenting world together. It truly takes a village to raise a child so please don’t keep these pearls of wisdom to yourself but share it with the new mum’s in your circles.
ENJOY !!

CAST 015 Kids and Chiropractic
It’s a question I get asked all the time. Why would a baby need to be checked by a chiropractor? And in this episode we discuss this and so much more on the topic of kids and chiropractic.
And although we are discussing in depth the work that I do, I am playing the curious mum in this episode and I ask Jacey all the questions that you also probably have.
So a very important message dear to my heart this week and I am thrilled to share this message with you and have Jacey my colleague in Chiropractic as a guest on the show.
ENJOY this week’s episode and once again, thanks for listening!!

CAST 007 Raising Kids who Choose and LOVE to eat Healthy Food
In this Episode 7 of Mum’s The Word we have our first dad on the show!! Dr Brett Hill shares with me his passion for educating his kids (and larger audiences too) on how to live the wellness lifestyle and how to teach them to love eating real food.
He’s even mastered how to get his kids Tom and Charlotte to choose to eat healthy food when he is not around and he’s just released a new e-book sharing all his not-to-do’s and to-do’s on this topic that have worked for him and his two. Very down to earth and easy to connect with, he’s not your average dad, he truly is an inspiring parent with a fantastic message for you all and he also happens to be my first fellow podcaster that I interview on our show.
A truly great episode for getting amazing practical tips on how to get your kids to eat healthily without bribes or making them feel guilty and so much more. Enjoy.
