1 Hour Follow-up Coaching Session

Service Description

If it has been more than 2 months since your child's initial developmental feeding assessment, please schedule a feeding skills reassessment. Follow-up, in-home, coaching sessions will always be family-centered. This means, while I may bring my professional skills to the table, the family (parents AND child) will choose the food consumed, utensils/cups of preference, and feeding techniques that work best for them. These sessions may include, but not limited to: 1) Feeding skills coaching for parent and baby using the Responsive Feeding approach. 2) Guidance of traditional vs. baby-led weaning 3) Moving from bottle/breast to open up or straw drinking (and why) 4) Recommendation of feeding gear. 5) Incorporation of simple baby sign language (to be used during meals and play) and guide to honoring all forms of communication. I am here to support you and your family THRIVE during mealtimes, but please note, this is not direct therapy. Please schedule during a MEAL TIME if possible. Lunch might be the meal with the lowest stress, but you can decide which meal is best for your family. Snack time is also available, but if may be most effective to meet during a meal.
