Do You Have a Picky Eater?

Join us for an informative one-hour workshop on raising your child to become a happy and healthy eater.

Are you struggling with a baby or toddler who is a picky eater?

*Is your child having negative reactions during feeding?

*Does your child struggle with “pocketing” food or has difficulty chewing?

*Are you about to start your child on solid food?

If you answered yes to any of these questions then this session is meant for you!

Our experienced pediatric Occupational Therapist has worked with families across the GTA to help them succeed in improving their children’s feeding skills, addressing any issues relating to oral-motor (feeding) skills, and expanding a picky eaters diet.

During this hour-long session Dima will take you through the following topics and answer your questions.

*What are the basic motor skills required for feeding?

*Baby-led weaning versus spoon feeding

*Oral-motor sensitivity: Why some kids gag or throw up when eating. How an OT can help address the issue

*Picky eaters: Two approaches to help expand children’s diets

*Stages of food acceptance & food chaining

If you have any questions feel free to give us a call on 1-844-237-4686

You can join us on Tuesday May 1st at 6.30pm.
