I’m Caroline—mom, early childhood expert, and founder of Chick & Sprout.
I’ve spent years working with early educators to help families raise adventurous eaters and create mealtime routines that actually work. I honed my methods even more when I introduced solids to my son, Russell, and I know I have truly cracked the code when it comes to preventing picky eating from the start!
This program is everything I wish I had—simple, supportive, grounded in real life.
Let’s feed your baby in a way that feels good for both of you.
