FEEDING THERAPY GROUPS
We are offering a Mealtime therapy program which utilises Responsive Feeding techniques, originating by recommendations from the World Health Organisations (WHO) . It has been shown to develop a child's regulation around food and create positive mealtime experiences and interactions for both child and caregivers.
Responsive feeding is a strength- based approach and aligned with neurodiversity-affirming principles that supported a child's feeding difference. It aims to support internal motivation and builds a child's confidence around food and there is no pressure place on a child to eat or try new foods.
