Re: Healthy Habits is looking for volunteer Nutrition Educators!

Healthy Habits is looking for energetic volunteers to teach in the Bronx and Upper Manhattan. Ideal candidates include, nutrition and kinesiology students, education students, and health and wellness enthusiasts. Read below for more information regarding the Healthy Habits lesson plan and philosophy. Hours are "after-school," 3-5 hours a week, with kids aged 6-10. Former volunteers, including students from NYU, Columbia, University of Delaware, University of Texas, have found it to be an incredibly rewarding, exciting, and informative experience.

Healthy Habits program is run, and created by, Laura Cipullo from Laura Cipullo Whole Nutrition Services. For more information, visithttp://lauracipullollc.com/

Healthy Habits' mission is to help children develop positive relationships with eating and neutral relationships with food. To meet that goal, it provides honest, credible and fun-filled health education utilizing sound nutrition and exercise principles to promote positive behavioral changes. The result: The creation of healthful lifelong habits leading to optimal wellness for the entire family.

Healthy Habits was developed to give parents and educators the wherewithal to teach wholesome nutrition guidelines-specifically, how to eat all foods while being healthy because all foods are available. Educators may use Healthy Habits' lesson plans as a complete 8-week program; parents may use them as an ongoing resource by referring to each of the 8 lessons when working to raise healthy and happy eaters in a friendly, non-judgmental environment.

In short, Healthy Habits' ultimate goal is to encourage healthy lifestyles for families-confident children (and parents) living sensibly using the "Everyday Foods versus Sometimes Foods" philosophy.
