2024 FEEDING WORKSHOPS

Our workshop content has been written by 2 speech pathologists who have combined, over 40+ years’ experience in paediatric feeding. The content presented is exactly how we manage our caseload in our own paediatric feeding private practices. 

Our practices have excellent reputations and equally excellent outcomes and more importantly our programs use a neurodiversity-affirming and trauma informed approach which is aligns with best practice guidelines.

Our responsive house model is grounded in evidence-based theory. It breaks down the complexities of feeding difficulties so that families can make the changes at home that generalise across all settings.

Together with the templates provided, you will have what you need to begin feeding assessment and therapy with your caseload straight away.
