Back to Basics – Best Practices in Infant Feeding

We take 5 minutes at the end of the presentation to discuss our course, Infant Nutrition Essentials.

As of June 1st, 2024 this webinar will no longer be approved for CPEUs with CDR.
Free

If you’re a dietitian new to working with infants, or a dietitian who WANTS to work with infants (totally doable by the way!), you need to know and understand the best practices when it comes to infant feeding.

Having a sound understanding of the foundation of nutrition in healthy term infants is key before you dive into more complicated cases and diagnoses.

Join us for the case of baby Sam, where we’ll walk you through the first 12 months, highlighting evidenced-based recommendations and red flags for:

  • breastfeeding and/or formula feeding
  • allergy prevention
  • complimentary food introduction
  • strategies to optimize texture progression
  • when and how to transition to milk

This webinar is not for you if you’re a seasoned pediatric dietitian BUT, we do encourage you to share with new colleagues and dietetic interns!

Webinar Rating & Reviews

People love our Webinar on Back to Basics!

“My only clinical experience has been in adult oncology, so this webinar was really helpful to refresh on nutrition in this population. I appreciated the guidelines, allergen introduction recommendations, and the Q&A session (even watching the recording).”

“This was a wonderful course. I feel much more confident talking to parents about starting solids. I look forward to completing others. Thank you so much!”

“I am a WIC nutritionist and so all this information is helpful in my practice when working with infants and formula and appropriate timelines on when to introduce solids.”
