    In this episode of Celiac Kid Logistics, Finch breaks down practical systems for navigating travel and parties after a child's celiac diagnosis. The first ninety days bring intense pressure around cross-contact risks, especially during outings where last-minute gaps often force unsafe choices. Learn concrete steps like contacting venue kitchens a week ahead to confirm dedicated prep areas, assembling a labeled travel kit with shelf-stable backups and a cooler for perishables, and testing everything on short local trips first.

    Key takeaways:
    - Call hosts early to request separate plates and offer sealed portions for your child
    - Watch buffet setups upon early arrival to spot utensil-sharing issues
    - Prepare dual meal versions for drives and check kit insulation for flights or hotels
    - Keep a car stash for graceful exits when environments shift unexpectedly

    These routines reduce mental load and build confidence through repeated small tests. 📩 Have questions or want to share your experience? Reach out at celiac@senseofthisshit.com. Support the show at https://www.spreaker.com/podca...
