"Are You a Gummy Bear Mom?" Grateful to be featured in Good Housekeeping this month, alongside psychologists Pamela Rutledge, Heather Wittenberg, and Dana McNeil.

The piece by Lisa Mulcahy explores a parenting approach that's gaining traction online: one where treats are welcomed without guilt, but structure still shapes the overall food environment.

The contribution I was glad to add: restriction fuels a scarcity mindset. When foods feel off-limits, kids' curiosity and desire for them actually intensify. It's a big part of why so many kids "go overboard" the moment they get access to sweets at a birthday party or play date.

The more sustainable approach isn't unlimited access or strict control. It's a food environment with a steady, nutritious foundation, where treats are enjoyed without shame, and children are given real choices within that structure. That combination (not any single meal or snack) is what builds genuine food competence over time.

As a pediatric dietitian, I have this conversation with families often, and I'm glad to see it getting thoughtful, non-judgmental coverage in the mainstream press, especially in the wake of !

These parents like to keep things in balance.

Friends with babies: you won’t be imagining things if you find that your little one seems to have a runny nose throughout the month of September! Loved contributing to this article in Colorado Parent Magazine that explains why babies tend to get colds more during this time of year, why this may not be necessarily bad news, and how food can help support a developing immune system.

If it feels like your baby has had a runny nose since Labor Day, you’re not imagining it. For many families, September marks the beginning of what can feel like an endless cycle of sniffles, coughs, fevers, and doctor visits. All it takes is one child bringing home a virus from daycare before the ...
