Healthy eating for children
Your child must have a healthy and balanced diet, so they get the essential nutrients needed to grow and develop.
By helping your child eat healthily in their early years, it helps establish healthy lifestyle behaviours that they can continue to use in their older childhood and into adulthood.
Startwell has more information on helping your child eat healthily.
