Hey there!
I’m Chelsey
Community Dietitian and Social Media Manager at
My Little Eater
You may recognize me from Instagram where I regularly share tips, tricks, and recommendations on feeding your babies and toddlers.
I also write blogs for MLE, test recipes, and provide personalized support to counselling clients through custom counselling packages and “ask me anything” sessions.
And when I’m not doing that, I love being out in our community meeting new parents, and helping them get started with solids through our in-person workshops!
I can’t wait to meet you and your little one at our next workshop!

frequently asked questions
Can my spouse come with me?
Yes, absolutely!
We highly encourage everyone to bring either their spouse/partner or another caregiver that will be feeding your baby regularly.
Your ticket purchase includes admission for you + your spouse/another caregiver + your baby. If you want to bring both your spouse AND another caregiver then you would need to purchase an additional ticket.
Can I claim the workshop as a medical expense?
We cannot guarantee that all insurance companies will cover a workshop like this. However, if you’d like to submit a receipt for insurance purposes we’d be happy to provide you with something.
Send us an email to [email protected] for more information.
How do I get the free download of recipes that comes with my ticket?
We will send you an email once you’ve made your purchase with a link for you to download your two week intro to solids meal plan.
Sometimes these do end up in spam so if you don’t notice it within an hour after purchasing, check your junk folder and email [email protected] if it’s still not there. Thank you!
Can I bring my baby?
Please do!
We love getting to meet your cute little ones 🙂
We will have a foam mat for the floor if you’d like to set them down to play or maybe even nap. They are more than welcome and you will have enough space to walk around with them, you can bring in their car seat, or do whatever you need to do. We totally get it!
