SERVICES
Occupational Therapy
Occupation therapy focuses on helping children reach their developmental milestones. For babies this can look like sitting independently to reach and grasp toys, picking up toys to place into containers, or strengthening their arms to hold themself up while on hands and knees. For older children this can include learning how to get dressed, manage fasteners (buttons, snaps, or zippers) on clothing, follow directions/routines, holding a pencil and writing. This is a direct service for your child to help improve their skills.
Feeding Therapy
Babies and toddlers occasionally struggle with transitioning to solids or table food. They may need extra help and support to gain the proper oral motor skills to consume more challenging foods. Feeding therapy will provide direct services to your child to help them gain the skills they need to be successfully consuming a variety of foods.
