I've been hearing from a few of you about food and feeding struggles: the same safe foods on repeat, new foods getting pushed away, mealtimes that feel like a battle. I'm thinking about building a step-by-step toolkit on this, and I want to make sure it fits what you're actually dealing with. Vote below, and if you have a minute, tell me in the comments what your child's "safe foods" are right now. No judgment here. Chicken nuggets and plain pasta are very welcome. 💙

Hi, and welcome! I'm Stephanie. When my son was little, someone told me he'd never be independent with hygiene. Today he's 13, and he showers on his own from start to finish. It took years of trial and error, and a lot of figuring out how to teach skills that other kids seem to just pick up. That's why this community exists. It's a place for parents, caregivers, and educators to share what's working, ask about what isn't, and find practical tools without having to dig for them. Here's how to get the most out of it: 🎓 One Skill at a Time (Classroom): a new step-by-step life skill every week, with printables 🎧 Daily Support & Tips: strategies, audio episodes, and real-life examples ❓ Questions: stuck on something? Post it. Someone here has probably been there. 🛡️ Health & Safety: plans and resources for the tough stuff Your first step: reply below with: 1️⃣ Your first name and who you're supporting (your child's age, or your role if you're an educator) 2️⃣ The ONE everyday skill that's hardest right now That's all you need to share. I read every reply, and your answers help decide what we cover next. 💙
