At Monkey Mouths, we believe that successful feeding therapy requires a thorough and thoughtful evaluation by a speech pathologist or occupational therapist with extensive training in feeding and swallowing.
We review your child’s medical history and probe for any further concerns or necessary medical referrals.
We evaluate your child’s feeding and swallowing for safety and efficiency.
We assess your child’s feeding skills against typical developmental feeding milestones.
We analyze oral-motor skills during feeding and non-feeding activities.
We review your child’s current diet for sensory and motor concerns as well as nutritional deficiencies.
We both question and probe for potential behavioral components.
In short, we observe and analyze all components of feeding and swallowing to determine what specific areas of feeding are affecting your child’s feeding success.
Next, we develop a feeding plan for your child and your family.
