About Trent Trillaby

Written by a dad, not an expert.

Trent Trillaby is a father of two who spent his kids' toddler years turning dinner into a negotiation and evenings into iPad debates. Both books started as notes on his phone — patterns he noticed, sentences that finally worked, weeks where something shifted.

He's not a pediatric nutritionist. He's not a screen-time researcher. He's a parent who wrote down what worked.

The books are illustrated in a warm gouache picture-book style, because parenting resources shouldn't look like tax forms.
