45: The One with Catherine From Chi Kids Feeding
Introduction:
This week I had the pleasure of speaking with Catherine Callahan of Chi Kids Feeding. Catherine is a mom of 3, feeding specialist, and co-creator of a product called Milton the Mealtime Companion.
In this episode, we discuss food chaining, a product for picky eaters that she helped create, and courses that she recommends to help you learn more about feeding and swallowing.
Catherine is only the second feeding specialist we have had on the show so if this is your area of interest, then you're going to love this episode!
