What makes feeding intervention unique at Ground to Grow?

Relationship first

Rooted in DIR Floortime principles, we put relationship first so your child will feel safe and empowered during exploration of food.

Guided by your child’s strengths and needs

The SOS Approach to Feeding helps us understand your child’s sensory preferences and eating skills, so activities start within their comfort zone.

Parents are important partners

We love parent participation! Working together helps you use strategies during meals at home.

Evaluation and Treatment for Ages 2 and Up

Pediatric Feeding Disorder is a recognized diagnosis that may apply to children who decline food, cannot progress to a variety of food textures, are highly selective eaters, or show difficulty with oral motor skills that interfere with their eating.

Learn more about the SOS Approach to Feeding on its website. This play-based, child-led framework informs feeding interventions at Ground to Grow OT.

Ground to Grow OT does not provide breast or bottle feeding intervention. For breastfeeding or bottle feeding support in the South Bay, visit Happy Feeding OT.
