How It Supports Children

  • Eating skills

    Individualized support for the skills each child needs at mealtime.

  • Mealtime routines

    Support connected to the meals and snacks that are part of the daily routine.

  • Family guidance

    Sharing strategies families can carry into mealtimes at home.

HOW IT FITS INTO PPEC

Meals and snacks are part of the structured day, which gives feeding therapy a natural place in the routine.
