Support. Nourish. Love.

In Home Visits, we come to you virtually! - We believe it is imperative to see your child in their natural environment to best support you in your child's feeding journey.

Comprehensive Feeding Evaluation – A thorough initial assessment with a Feeding Therapist allows for an in-depth look at your child's feeding challenges, from the perspective of a Registered Dietitian (RD) OR Occupational Therapist (OT).

Mealtime Observation- It is crucial to developing effective strategies that we see how your child functions at mealtimes with the family in their natural environment. This is completed on your child's initial visit.

Individualized Strategies– We recognize all families are unique. Your child is unique. We value providing individual specific strategies to best support you in navigating your child's feeding journey.

Feeding Therapy Support Sessions- Feeding Therapy is a journey. Most families and their child require in-person weekly Feeding Therapy support for a minimum duration of 3-6 months. Every family and child is unique and therefore, our treatment plan recommendations will be provided to you after your child's Feeding Evaluation.

Follow up – We want you and your child to succeed. We recommend post assessment follow up to ensure you feel supported in implementing the strategies with your child. This follow up allows us to coach, support, educate and provide modifications and grading to your child's individualized program.

Support via email or text – Have a question in between therapy sessions? Need a quick refresher or guidance? We are here for you. We offer support via email or text during the duration of your child's treatment plan to provider ongoing support in between sessions.

Our Intuitive Feeding program outlines three treatment plans (as therapy guidelines) to support families who's children have various levels of feeding concerns. If you are unsure which plan would suit your child best, please reach out. If you do not see a plan that you feel will suit your child's unique needs we would love to hear from you.

In-Person visits may be available to Calgary & surrounding areas - travel fees apply.
