Who It’s For

Why Do This Course

Upskill For Your Current Role

You already work with young children. This course adds the child nutrition side: what to say about food, and how to use daily routines, activities and group times to help kids eat well.

A Small First Step Into Childcare Work

Ten study hours, online, at your own pace. A short way to build real skills for working with kids, and you finish with CPD points and a Credly badge to show for it.

Handy At Home As Well

The same skills work at your own kitchen table. You learn the how and why of healthy food, so you can explain it to kids instead of arguing about it.

Why This One

What Makes It Different

Here is what stands out in this course.

01
Kids Learn By Watching You

Children are always watching and always listening. When they see adults eating good food and staying active, they are more likely to do the same. This course shows you how to be that role model.

02
The How And Why Of Healthy Food

Not just what kids should eat. You learn enough about child nutrition to explain the why in words a small child understands.

03
Built Into The Day

Daily routines, activities and group times all become chances to support healthy eating. That is where the course puts the skills to work.

04
Lifetime Access, No Deadline

Your access never runs out. Finish in your own time, then come back to the material whenever you need it again.

Good to Know

Common Questions

Who is this course for?

Educators who spend their days with young children, and parents who want mealtimes to go better. You learn child nutrition and how to model healthy habits.

How long does the course take?

Around 10 study hours, at your own pace. Access is lifetime, so there is no deadline. You can come back to the material after you finish.

What does it cost each week?

The weekly plan is $15 a week, interest-free with no credit check. Enquire for the full payment options, including pay-in-four with Afterpay and upfront.

How are assessments done?

Short-answer and multiple-choice, built to help you understand rather than test you against the clock. You can retake them as many times as you need, and marking comes back within one business day.

Will this help with my own kids?

Yes. You learn how children pick up eating habits by watching the adults around them, and how to explain the how and why of healthy food in words kids get.

Is this course accredited?

It is CPD endorsed, which is accreditation for professional development: you finish with CPD points employers recognise, plus a Credly digital badge. It is not a nationally recognised qualification. That is a different thing, and you do not need one to bring these skills into your day with kids.

Can I get my money back if it is not for me?

Yes. There is a 7-day cooling-off period. You can switch to another course or get your money back.
