Edwena Kennedy is a registered pediatric dietitian, mom of two, and the founder of My Little Eater®, an internationally recognized platform that empowers parents to confidently raise healthy, happy eaters from infancy through toddlerhood.
With over 14 years of experience in pediatric nutrition, Edwena has educated and supported more than 400,000 parents worldwide through her industry-leading online courses. Her programs focus on starting solids using Baby-Led Feeding principles and on the prevention and reversal of picky eating during the toddler years.
She is particularly skilled at helping those who are anxious and overwhelmed when it comes to serving food to baby safely and progressing in textures. She developed the Texture Timeline™, a proprietary tool to help parents progress their baby through textures in a structured and timely way, whether using purees, finger foods or both.
Drawing from both clinical expertise and her own experience as a mom to two “picky-turned-adventurous” eaters, Edwena blends evidence-based strategies with practical tools to reverse picky eating in toddlers ages 1-5. She uses a holistic approach to analyze the source of picky eating, and creates individualized plans to create structures, happy and peaceful mealtimes, while re-building the child’s innate curiosity around new foods.
Her expertise is in the following:
- Starting solids (with purees or finger foods)
- Excessive gagging/sensory/texture aversions
- Picky eating prevention (transitioning from babyhood to toddlerhood)
- Reversing picky and selective eating
- Poor mealtime behaviour or routines
- Nutrient or growth concerns (under/overweight)
- Baby/Toddler/Family meal planning and recipes
- Food allergies and intolerances
- Tube weaning and transitioning to eating by mouth
- Constipation, low iron etc.
- Starting solids feeding sessions
- Picky eating feeding therapy
