Some children have feeding and eating difficulties, this can look like:

• Refusal of family meals
• Refusal of fruit, vegetables and / or protein foods
• Distress and tantrums when offered new foods to try
• Preference for milk rather than whole food
• The ability to go all day without eating
• Preference for single textured foods and food to be separated on their plate
• Strong preference for specific brands of foods

If your child is experiencing these difficulties, then you will benefit from an appointment. An consultation with Melanie will provide you with practical strategies to manage your child’s feeding difficulties.

My goal is to ensure that children are meeting their nutritional requirements while learning how to eat a better variety of food.

I will spend time assessing, and explaining why your child finds it difficult to eat a wide variety of foods and textures from the 5 core food groups.

I will train parents and caregivers to become the Food Therapist in the home environment, with clear strategies and recommendations to help your child progress towards healthier eating habits.

It can be a long and challenging road, but with the right help you can help your child improve their eating habits.
