Payment Information:

  • Payment details will be provided upon request.
  • All 11 Food School sessions + the one included parent consultation will be prepaid.
  • Given the nature of the feeding intervention and the pacing of therapy activities in a group setting, we will not offer make-ups for any missed food school sessions.
  • Superbills can be provided for those seeking insurance reimbursement. 

How to Sign Up:

  • For families currently receiving OT feeding therapy OR have participated in a previous OT feeding group: Please email Emily, at eo@littlehandsot.com to complete an updated food list & any food allergies or dietary restrictions.
  • For new families who have not received OT feeding services: To ensure appropriate peer pairing and group treatment goals, we require an initial evaluation to assess group readiness and appropriate fit for our sensory-based intervention approach to feeding. Please email our clinic coordinator, Emily, at eo@littlehandsot.com to schedule an initial screening and complete our OT Intake Form and Feeding History Questionnaire Form.
