In brief
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the ability of a home-based parental nutrition intervention to improve diet quality in preschool aged children within low-income, Latinx/Hispanic families. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does this enhanced intervention change children's diet quality? * Does this enhanced intervention change parental feeding practices? * Does this enhanced intervention change the availability of healthy foods in the home? Participants will: * Work with a support coach * Have a home visit with a support coach once a month, for three months * Have a phone call with a support coach once a month, for three months * Receive written materials and text messages over the six months Researchers will compare a control group receiving different written materials and messages to see if the enhanced intervention changes diet quality in children.
