Feeding Assessment

Toowoomba, Gatton

Feeding difficulties can affect a person’s nutrition, development, independence, and overall wellbeing. Our Occupational Therapist provides comprehensive Feeding Assessments to identify the underlying factors impacting mealtimes and create practical strategies that support safe, enjoyable, and successful eating experiences.

Our Feeding Assessments may assist individuals experiencing:

  • Selective or picky eating
  • Sensory sensitivities to food textures, smells, or temperatures
  • Difficulties using utensils or self-feeding
  • Oral motor and chewing challenges (within OT scope)
  • Mealtime anxiety or behavioural challenges around eating
  • Delayed feeding skill development
  • Difficulties transitioning to new food textures
  • Developmental or neurological conditions affecting feeding

Our assessments are family-centred and tailored to each participant’s individual goals, helping improve confidence, independence, and participation during mealtimes. Feeding assessments often consider sensory processing, oral-motor skills, posture, fine motor abilities, and the overall mealtime environment to determine the most appropriate supports.
