SOS Approach to Feeding
Paediatric Feeding Therapy for Babies & Toddlers
When mealtimes feel like battles — gagging, food refusal, a child stuck on purées — feeding therapy helps. The Birth Life offers paediatric feeding therapy with Yogyata Wadhwa, trained in the SOS Approach to Feeding, in-clinic in Sector 49, Gurugram and online.
Who this helps
Babies and toddlers who gag or refuse foods, struggle to move from purées to textures, eat a very short list of foods, have oral motor delays, or whose parents feel anxious about starting solids.
The approach
Feeding therapy here follows the SOS Approach to Feeding — play-based, no-pressure, and family-centred. Skills build step by step: from tolerating food on the plate, to touching, tasting and finally eating.
Where relevant, infant oral motor assessment and cervical auscultation inform the plan.
Sessions
Sessions run in-clinic at Sector 49, Gurugram, or online worldwide. For families starting solids, the self-paced Starting Solids course pairs well with therapy.
Frequently asked questions
What ages does feeding therapy cover?
From babies starting solids through toddlers and young children with picky eating, texture or oral-motor difficulties.
How is this different from a lactation consultation?
Lactation consultations focus on breast/chest feeding and infant feeding. Feeding therapy focuses on solids, textures, oral motor skills and picky eating in older babies and toddlers.
