Helping Even Our Littlest Take Flight...

Feeding your baby should not be stressful. Hummingbird's Infant Breast & Bottle Feeding Therapy is for babies with bottle or breastfeeding struggles. We are here to help both the child and caregiver/family!

​Infant feeding struggles are common and can be treated. No matter how far along you are on your journey, it is never too late to seek help!
What are some symptoms of infant feeding difficulties? 
We tailor the program to fit the needs of your child and family. Some signs your family might benefit from our Infant Breast & Bottle Feeding Therapy Program include:
  • Limited intake or oral spillage
  • Pain/discomfort while breastfeeding
  • Hiccuping/sneezing/coughing after feedings
  • ​Gulping/choking/clicking sounds during feedings
  • General distress during feedings
  • Feedings longer than 30 minutes
How can we help?
Infant feeding struggles can trigger gagging, choking and poor weight gain which creates anxiety and tension within a family. Our Infant Breast & Bottle Feeding Therapy Team treats the infant AND caregivers as a whole. We can help with:
  • Bottle feeding
  • Breastfeeding
  • Transitioning to purees and solids​
Our Infant Breast & Bottle Feeding Therapy Team is made up of SOFFI® (Supporting Oral Feeding in Fragile Infants) Certified Professionals who have received the best training in infant feeding as well as Lactation Consultants and Oro-Myofunctional Therapists. Our team is able to assist babies from NICU to Early Intervention (EI) and everything in between.

Through our Infant Breast & Bottle Feeding Therapy Program, you will meet with an experienced feeding therapist every week who will answer your questions and help with various techniques, positioning and transitions.
PARENT TESTIMONAL
"When we brought Frances home after a 4-month stay in the NICU, she was primarily g-tube fed and consuming less than 25% of her calories by mouth. With the support of Hummingbird's expert feeding therapy, we have watched Frances blossom over the past year. She is now eating purees and solid foods, drinking liquids, and being evaluated for g-tube removal." - Kristen, Hinsdale Mom
