In this episode of Celiac Kid Logistics, Finch breaks down the critical first ninety days after a child's celiac diagnosis, when school routines, social events, and family travel demand immediate practical adjustments. From securing a 504 plan for safe cafeteria access to navigating cross-contact risks at birthday parties and assembling reliable travel kits, the focus stays on kid-specific logistics that protect without overwhelming daily life. Parents learn actionable steps like contacting school counselors early, prepping similar-looking safe treats for events, and stocking shelf-stable snacks while scouting grocery stops on the road. These small preparations build confidence and prevent bigger issues down the line.

Key takeaways:
- Contact the school counselor promptly to request a 504 plan covering gluten-free options and prep areas
- Offer to bring a fun, trusted safe treat to parties to reduce exposure while letting kids participate fully
- Pack labeled, shelf-stable foods plus backup options for trips, checking labels each time
