Introduction to Feeding!Right when you think you’ve got your baby’s feedings figured out, it’s time to start thinking about food! It sounds a little scary and overwhelming, right? Whether you’re interested in Baby Led Weaning, started with purees, or are just unsure how to transition to solids, we’re here to help! Relying on our professional training and expertise, we will boost your confidence in feeding your little one and get the most exposure to tastes and textures in year one.
Our Introduction to Feeding is led by two speech therapists who specialize in early childhood development. We start with a phone call to learn more about your child and their goals, as well as, to answer any beginning questions or concerns. We will follow with 3, 30-minute tele-sessions where we interactively work with you and your child. The cost for this course is $200. Email us at [email protected] to get started.
During these sessions we will help you:• Prepare your baby for solids
• Gather necessary tools and utensils for successful self-feeding
• Decide which foods to serve first
• Learn appropriate food sizes to help baby pick up foods
• Schedule and nursing/bottle feeds
• Understand gagging vs choking
• Identify any potential oral motor or oral musculature issues that may impact feeding
• Trouble shoot throughout the process
• Get ready for beginning cup and straw drinking
