Working with Families Who Feed with European Infant Formulas
Presenter: Lisa Richardson
Webinar Description: In this presentation, we'll focus on working with families who are using or are considering using a European infant formula. We'll review not only the risks associated with using these formulas outside their intended market, but also how pediatric dietitians can collaborate with families who choose to use these formulas. Along the way, we'll debunk a few myths about European and American formulas and discuss the key features of some of the more popular European products. By the end of the presentation, you'll be better equipped to answer family questions and collaborate with families on their infant formula choice.
Content presentation will be no more than 50 minutes with opportunities in each section for participants to ask questions. Participant engagement strategies (e.g. polls and chats) will be used throughout.
Webinar Outline:
- Introduction and review of webinar objectives
- What influences parent's infant formula choice?
- European Baby Formula vs. American Formula: Claims and Truths
- Collaborating With Families
- Final Questions and Discussion
Learning Objectives
Following the webinar, the attendee will be able to:
- Appraise potential risks of using European formulas purchased through third-party vendors

Basic Training in Pediatric Nutrition Assessment: Let’s Get Physical
Presenter: Kelly Green Corkins, MS, RD, LDN, CNSC
Webinar Description: The focus of this presentation is the nutritional assessment of children with an emphasis on nutrition focused physical assessment. A thorough understanding of the clinical skill required for the assessment of the nutritional status of children in the diagnosis of malnutrition is essential. Part of that process includes the ability to complete a nutrition focused physical examination. This presentation will provide information and demonstration for the attendees on this topic.
Learning Objectives
Following the webinar, the attendee will be able to:
- Accurately measure height or length, weight, head circumference, mid upper arm circumference, and triceps skin fold and use these measurements to calculate body mass index and arm muscle area.
- Plot anthropometric data and calculations on growth charts, determine z-scores and use to assess growth and diagnose malnutrition or obesity as appropriate.
- Perform basic nutrition focused physical examination techniques to verify accuracy of information gathered from medical record review, support malnutrition diagnosis and/or discover micronutrient deficiencies.

Sowing the Seeds of Plant-Forward Eating in Children While Reaping the Benefits of Dairy
Sponsored by Danone North America
Presenter: Jill Castle, MS, RDN, CDN
Webinar Description: As more families seek to adopt plant-based eating patterns, many are wondering if this way of eating can meet all the nutritional needs of a child. Nutrition from a variety of food sources is essential to a child's growth, neurocognitive, and psychomotor development, making a nutrient-rich diet paramount. In this presentation attendees will learn about the current research around the health benefits of incorporating animal foods, such as dairy, into a child’s plant-based eating pattern. They will also learn about practical ways to encourage children to adopt an eating pattern that includes a wide variety of foods including those that are plant-based and dairy-based.
Learning Objectives
Following the webinar, the attendee will be able to:
- Define plant-based eating patterns and summarize the known health benefits and nutrients of concern
- Understand the health benefits of dairy foods and ways to incorporate them in a child’s plant-based eating pattern
- Match practical nutrition advice with family desires and intentions, while ensuring nutritional requirements are met throughout childhood

Supporting Children (and Families) With Weight Concerns: It's Not Just the Pizza Rolls
Presenter: Leslie Schilling, MA, RDN, CSSD, CEDRD-S, CSCS
Webinar Description: A child’s lived experiences can positively or negatively impact their ability to self-regulate. As a result, some children may experience weight dysregulation. Practitioners must be aware of and elicit pertinent medical, developmental, trauma and feeding or dieting history, and how they can impact a child’s relationship with food and their bodies into adulthood. Despite recommendations from the American Academy of Pediatrics to avoid discussions with children about dieting and weight in order to do no harm, it remains a focal point of conversation in many healthcare settings, communities, and in the media. This presentation will address safe, evidence-based responsive strategies and practical tips to help families and clinicians promote healthy eating patterns and prevent disordered eating behaviors in children through a weight-neutral, culturally-sensitive lens.
Learning Objectives
Following the webinar, the attendee will be able to:
- Acknowledge childhood experiences and environmental factors that may impact a child’s ability to self-regulate intake.
- Identify current recommendations and guidelines for monitoring growth and discussing weight with children and adolescents.
- Synthesize language and practical tips to guide parents, coaches, and healthcare professionals in helping children (re)discover internal cues to move towards a more positive relationship with food and their bodies.
