The FeedingPlus Approach
I am passionate about helping children and families enjoy food and mealtimes offering a sensitive, relationship-focused approach
- I believe in a responsive, trust-based approach which promotes self-regulation, respects autonomy, and cultivates enjoyable mealtime experiences.
- There is no ‘one-size-fits all’ feeding approach when supporting kids and their families.
- The family should always be at the heart of any treatment plan. Parents are the experts on their child.
- I will conduct a comprehensive feeding assessment to understand your child's needs and develop a feeding plan specific to your child and family
- Through mealtime guidance and parent coaching, I will help get your child get back-on-track with practical solutions.
- Studies have found high levels of parent satisfaction with parent coaching interventions for feeding disorders. Parents report feeling more confident and empowered in managing feeding challenges and appreciate the personalized support they receive.
- FeedingPlus offers feeding and nutrition support for babies and children of all ages including teenagers.

Feeding support is just a click away
As a mother of a child with medical issues, I know firsthand that getting your child to numerous appointments outside of the home, can be very challenging, stressful, and time consuming. Scheduling therapy sessions around work and daily life can be difficult. FeedingPlus' online clinic gives you access and convenience that is just a smartphone or laptop away.
Proud to work with these great organizations
