Food Tips for Children
The toddler years bring unique nutritional challenges as children assert their independence and develop food preferences. This handout provides specific guidance for feeding toddlers (ages 1-3), including appropriate portion sizes, nutrient needs, and strategies for this developmental stage.
At Nourish Medical Center, we recognize that toddler feeding requires patience and strategy. This guide helps you navigate this challenging phase while ensuring your toddler gets the nutrition they need for healthy growth and development.

This handout includes toddler-specific nutrition information, realistic expectations for this age group, tips for introducing new foods during the “picky eating” phase, and guidance on foods to avoid or modify for safety.
