Sensory Feeding Therapy
Helping Children Build a Positive Relationship with Food Some children find eating stressful or overwhelming. Our Sensory Feeding Therapy service supports children with difficulties around mealtimes — from picky eating and oral motor delays to food texture aversions and anxiety.
Our AHPC-certified therapists use a child-led, respectful approach focused on making mealtimes positive and pressure-free. We help children:
- Explore new foods through play and gradual exposure
- Develop oral motor skills for chewing and swallowing
- Improve tolerance for different textures, smells and tastes
- Reduce anxiety and improve mealtime behaviour
We draw from evidence-based frameworks like the SOS Approach to Feeding, and work closely with families to develop practical home strategies and routines.
Ideal for Children With:
- Picky eating or food refusal
- Oral-motor delays (chewing, swallowing difficulty)
- Texture or sensory food aversions
- Mealtime anxiety or avoidance
- Poor weight gain due to selective intake
Let us help your child feel safe and confident with food. Book a discovery call with our feeding team.
