FEEDING THERAPY GROUPS

We offer a Mealtime Therapy program using Responsive Feeding techniques as endorsed by WHO. This Australia-wide initiative, including remote areas and Alice Springs, supports children's self-regulation at meals. It enhances mealtime interactions between kids and caregivers using a strength-based and neurodiversity-affirming approach. This boosts children’s confidence in making nutritious food choices without pressure to eat.

Our experienced health team partners with organisations like the Anyinginyi Health Aboriginal Corporation. We provide coordinated nutrition programs informed by the latest data, addressing regional barriers. By integrating a Diabetes Educator and specialists, we tackle issues like diabetes and chronic disease, ensuring comprehensive care for children in diverse communities.
