Allergies and intolerances
Food allergies are common in Australia. Early childhood services who provide food to young children will need to plan their menus to accommodate children with food allergies. Some allergic reactions can be life-threatening, so it is important to know how to prepare and serve food safely for children with food allergies.
Training
Strengthen your impact with evidence-based strategies to promote healthy eating in early childhood settings. These trainings cover effective menu planning, allergy management, and ways to influence positive lifelong habits.
