Feeding Therapy

Developing healthy eating habits is a fundamental part of a child’s growth from birth to age 20. Inside our pediatric medical daycare in Tamarac, our child and understanding approach helps children overcome feeding difficulties, making mealtimes a more positive and successful experience for everyone.

Our Feeding Therapy Program Focuses On:

• Our skilled therapists work to improve oral motor skills, coordination, and the ability to swallow safely and effectively.
• For infants needing specialized help, our dedicated infant feeding specialist provides gentle, expert guidance to support their earliest nutritional needs.
• Our feeding therapist for baby and older children helps expand food repertoires and reduce mealtime anxieties in a playful, encouraging way.

A Partnership in Your Child’s Care:

• We prioritize creating a calm and child environment where your child feels safe, supported by our experienced team of Registered and Licensed Practical Nurses who adhere to a strict 1:6 maximum nurse-to-patient ratio.
• A strong alliance with parents and pediatricians is crucial, allowing us to work together to ensure consistency and success in a child’s feeding journey.

Accessible and Supportive Services:

• Our facility welcomes families from Tamarac, North Lauderdale, Oakland Park, and the wider surrounding region to access our specialized care.
• As a dedicated PPEC provider, all our services, including feeding therapy for eligible children, are completely covered through Medicaid.
