Why Work With Us?
I am passionate about partnering with families and other professionals to put together the pieces of each unique feeding puzzle.
This looks like working closely with caregivers, their child as well as any other providers involved in their care. That’s how the name Pediatric Feeding Partners came about.
A strawberry plant (your child) thrives with companion plants Borage (doctors, specialists), Marigolds (caregivers) surrounding and supporting it.
Together as Partners, we navigate challenges and determine a plan using the most current science and considering the unique needs of your child and family. I do this through virtual consults and in person assessment and treatment.
