Do you have a picky eater? Is feeding time stressful? Do you spend time making different meals for your child? Is eating out a nightmare? The good news is....feeding class works! The goal of this class is to turn eating into a fun activity. We explore how foods look, smell, taste and feel. By taking the fear out of foods, we find the children will experiment with them and eventually add them to their diets!  Private sessions are also available and may be covered by your BCBS PPO plan.  Call for any questions.
