Sleep and/or feeding support
Together feeding and settling for naps/bedtime make a large part of an infant/toddler's day which means when it is not going according to plan it is very challenging for both the child and parent.
An appointment focused on feeding challenges will include - comprehensive feeding assessment (including tongue tie assessment if indicated); responsive feeding support with breastfeeding/solids and/or formula feeding; personalised feeding plan to meet parental goals while remaining child focused. Ideally appointment will include observation of the aspect of feeding that is currently challenging.
Developmentally appropriate responsive sleep and settling support will be provided for those having difficulties with sleep. To support success a feeding assessment is also completed. Personalised plan will be made in partnership with parents to meet each family’s individual circumstances.
