Feeding | OT by Emily

Are mealtimes more stressful than you’d like?
Are you struggling to help expand the foods your child is comfortable being around?
Do you want more support and expertise to help navigate feedings?

You are not alone

Between 1 in 23 and 1 in 37 children under the age of 5 have a Pediatric Feeding Disorder (PFD).

PFD encompasses feeding difficulties associated with medical, nutritional, feeding skill, and/or psychosocial dysfunction.

Feeding can be fun and less stressful by eliminating pressure and embracing a Responsive Feeding Approach. Whether you are trying to expand a food repertoire, learn how to self-feed, figure out optimal positioning, drink through a variety of vessels, navigate tube feedings, or learn more about how to enjoy the feeding process, our goal is always to help create mealtime peace, foster opportunities for celebration, and create opportunities for change.

There are many enjoyable and meaningful ways for you and your child to gain the confidence and competence to overcome mealtime challenges.

Partner with Emily to find creative and fun solutions that help everyone thrive.
