If mealtimes feel heavy, stressful, or like they never progress, this pathway is for you. Maybe your baby is gagging, refusing textures, or only accepting purées. Maybe your toddler’s list of foods is shrinking and you feel like you’re running out of options. These are the signs that feeding isn’t just “fussy eating” it’s a deeper challenge that needs a specialist lens. This pathway takes you straight to the root of what’s going on and gives you the clarity you’ve been craving.

Because feeding difficulties don’t just disappear with time. In fact, the longer a cycle of refusal, stress, or avoidance continues, the more deeply it takes hold. Waiting often means the challenge becomes more ingrained, and your child misses out on crucial learning windows for feeding skills. Early action means quicker shifts, fewer battles, and feeding that feels easier for both of you.

Feeding is far more than behaviour it’s about how the muscles, senses, swallowing, and emotions all work together.

As a Speech and Language Therapist specialising in feeding, I don’t just look at what your child eats I look at how they eat, what’s happening in their body, and how it all links together. That’s what makes the shift lasting. Where others may stop at surface-level advice, I bring clinical training and over a decade of experience to uncover what’s really blocking progress and show you how to rebuild feeding step by step.

Because this isn’t about tips. It’s about getting to the crux of your child’s feeding journey their body, their skills, their trust. Generic advice might work for surface-level fussy eating, but when feeding feels like it’s stuck, you need something deeper. Here, you’re not left second-guessing. You’ll have clear insight into why things haven’t worked before and a tailored, step-by-step path to move forward.

You are the shift your child needs. What we do together gives you the insight, tools, and confidence to carry the changes into every mealtime. That’s where the real transformation happens not just in sessions, but in the way you begin to respond differently day after day.

So yes, I will be guiding you in exactly what to do at home, step by step, in a way that feels manageable and fits into your daily rhythm so you feel empowered to keep the progress building between sessions.

Every child’s journey is different. Some begin to shift within a few days, once the right strategies are in place, while others need more time to rebuild trust and skills. What I can tell you is this: once we stop guessing and start working responsively, progress follows. Whether that’s less gagging, more accepted foods, or calmer mealtimes the change starts to feel tangible.

That’s exactly where my expertise sits. I’ve worked with babies and children with a wide range of medical conditions, developmental differences, and complex feeding needs. Whether it’s prematurity, gastric symptoms, cardiology, respiratory, neurological or neurodivergence - I piece together the full picture. This isn’t about trying to fit your child into a rigid plan, it’s about tailoring the approach so it works for their unique feeding journey.
