Occupational Therapist at Lively Eaters Feeding Services - Evandale, Tasmania, Australia
Children are highly sensitive to their environment and the development of a successful 'feeding partnership' can be adversely affected by many different factors in the child and/or parents. The Lively Eaters team provides multi-disciplinary team assessment and therapy services for a wide range of infant, children and adolescent feeding difficulties. We strive to bring together all of the components which we know to impact successful and functional eating – relational, emotional, sensory, motor, behavioural and medical – and work together with families to better understand the impact of these within their family unit and how to move 'forward'.
