Not surprisingly, the topics of healthy eating habits, promoting healthy eating and raising your children in a healthy nurturing environment has come up on a number of occasions on First Time Mum’s Chat.

In this week’s episode, I’ll be focusing on why healthy eating habits are so important to you and your family. During this episode, you’ll hear me reference a number of earlier First Time Mum’s Chat episodes and I’ve included links to these past episodes on this page below. 

During this episode, you’ll hear me talk about:-

• The dangers of feeding your family processed food and caffeinated drinks.
• Ways to encourage more family time and to avoid screen time during meal times.
• Why role playing is so vital when it comes to setting your children on the road to a lifetime of healthy eating habits.
• How you can avoid and reduce the risk of overeating and obesity by encouraging healthy eating habits.

And so, so much more.
