Feeding feels off
Bottles take too long. Your baby tires out, gets upset, or seems to struggle. You're not sure if it's normal or if something needs attention.
Services
Infant specialty care built around real families, real concerns, real next steps.
We provide feeding therapy, breastfeeding and lactation support, nutrition and growth services, developmental evaluation and therapy, NICU follow-up, FEES, and community programs — exclusively for infants and young children. Every service is designed to give families clarity, coordinated care, and support that carries over into everyday life.
You may be in the right place if…
Any of this sounds familiar.
Progress feels stuck
Your child isn't moving to purees, textures, or solids the way you expected. Mealtimes have become something everyone dreads.
You need answers
You've tried adjusting things on your own. You've gotten different advice from different people. You just want to know what's actually going on.
After a NICU stay
Feeding after discharge has been harder than expected. You're not sure what's normal for a baby with your child's history, and you want professional eyes on it.
Bottle refusal
Your baby refuses the bottle entirely or takes it only under very specific conditions. It's become a source of real stress — for your baby and for you.
Tube weaning
You're working toward transitioning your child off tube feeding and need structured support, guidance around readiness, and a clear plan for how to get there.
Weight gain or nutritional concerns
Your child isn't gaining weight the way they should, or you have questions about intake volume, formula, or nutrition that haven't been fully answered elsewhere.
Developmental milestones
Something feels off with how your child is moving, responding, or developing — and you want a specialist who understands how feeding and development intersect in infants.
Feeding Therapy
Where most families start — and continue — care.
Whether you need clarity first or you already know support is needed, these services form the foundation of what we do.
Feeding Evaluations
The right first step when something feels off and you need a clearer picture of why. Includes caregiver interview, feeding history, clinical observation, and practical recommendations.
Learn more →Ongoing Feeding Therapy
Recurring sessions focused on feeding skills, progression, tolerance, and real carryover into daily life. Designed for meaningful progress — not just one good session in the clinic.
Learn more →Parent Coaching
Practical guidance to help families feel more confident during feeds, routines, and home practice. Parents are central to the process — good support should leave you steadier, not more overwhelmed.
Learn more →Breastfeeding & Lactation
When nursing and bottle feeding don't go as planned.
Our lactation-informed care addresses the full feeding picture — from latch and transfer to oral function and the transition between breast and bottle.
Lactation & Feeding Support
For families navigating breastfeeding challenges alongside early feeding concerns. We bring lactation-informed clinical perspective to the full picture — bottle transitions, oral function, and feeding stress included.
Learn more →Bottle Refusal Support
For families dealing with bottle refusal, aversion, or difficult feeding transitions. We help identify what's contributing and build a practical approach for moving forward.
Learn more →NICU Transition & Follow-Up
Post-discharge feeding support, built on Level III and IV NICU experience.
Our clinicians bring direct Level III and IV NICU experience to outpatient follow-up care — so families leaving the NICU have a team that already understands the complexity of what their child has been through.
NICU Graduate Feeding Support
For families navigating feeding after NICU discharge — intake challenges, feeding stress, progression concerns, and building confidence at home. We understand the NICU context your child came from.
Learn more →Tube Weaning Support
Family-centered support for children working toward greater oral feeding — including readiness assessment, structured progression, and daily carryover strategies.
Learn more →Nutrition & Growth
When weight gain, intake, or nutritional needs are part of the picture.
Nutritional concerns and feeding concerns often go hand in hand. Our nutrition-informed clinical care addresses intake volume, growth, formula management, and diet progression — as part of the broader care plan.
Nutrition & Growth Support
Specialist guidance for infants and young children with weight gain, intake volume, or nutritional concerns — including support around formula, fortification, and the transition to solid foods.
Ask about nutrition services →Coordinated Nutritional Care
When feeding and nutrition overlap, we coordinate with your child's other providers — pediatricians, dietitians, and specialists — to keep care aligned and avoid conflicting guidance.
Get in Touch →Developmental Services
Early evaluation and support for infants showing developmental concerns.
Developmental and feeding concerns frequently co-occur in infants — especially those with NICU histories, prematurity, or complex medical backgrounds. Our developmental services address early concerns as part of a coordinated plan of care.
Developmental Evaluation & Therapy
Early evaluation and therapy for infants with emerging developmental concerns — including motor development, sensory processing, and early milestone support.
Ask about developmental services →Feeding-Related Developmental Support
For infants where feeding difficulties and developmental factors are connected — oral motor development, sensory aversions, and the developmental underpinnings of feeding challenges.
Get in Touch →Instrumental Assessment
FEES: When a clinical look at swallowing is needed.
Fiberoptic Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing (FEES) is an instrumental assessment that provides direct visualization of the swallow — giving clinicians and families a clearer picture when clinical observation alone isn't enough.
FEES Evaluation
For infants where aspiration, silent aspiration, or swallowing dysfunction is suspected — FEES provides direct visualization of the swallow to guide clinical decisions and care planning.
Ask about FEES →Who FEES Is For
FEES may be recommended for infants with NICU histories, respiratory or cardiac complexity, persistent coughing or choking during feeds, or when aspiration risk cannot be fully assessed clinically.
Get in Touch →Community Programs
Education, groups, and specialized programs for families.
Programs & Parent Groups
Specialty offerings including tube weaning intensives, prenatal feeding education, new parent groups, and safety training — built around the needs of specific families and situations.

Start with the concern. We'll help you find the right fit.
Some families come in knowing exactly what they need. Others just know feeding has become stressful, confusing, or harder than it should be. Either way, the deeper service pages answer the questions that usually stop families from reaching out.
- Who the service is for

- Breastfeeding & Lactation — if nursing and bottle feeding overlap
- Tube Weaning — if you're working toward oral feeding

Quick answers
Common questions about services.
Do I need a referral to access services?
Families can reach out directly to get started. If a referral is needed for insurance or coordination of care, we'll help you navigate that once you contact us.
Is a feeding evaluation always the first step?
For most families, yes — especially if this is your first time seeking feeding support. An evaluation gives us the full picture and helps determine the most appropriate type of care. Some families who have had previous evaluations elsewhere may start differently.
Can my child receive multiple types of support?
Yes. Many children benefit from a combination — for example, ongoing therapy alongside parent coaching, or specialty support alongside regular sessions. The right combination is determined based on your child's needs and your family's goals.
What if I'm not sure which service fits our situation?
That's completely fine. You don't need to know which service you need before reaching out. Reach out through the appointment request page, describe what you're seeing, and we'll help guide you toward the right starting point.
