Welcome!
I'm Jessie, a dedicated paediatric speech pathologist, feeding therapist, and educator.
My mission is to support and empower families - just like yours - in navigating feeding challenges with a holistic approach.
Feeding isn't just about nourishment; it's a pillar that supports both infant health and meaningful connections. I bring my expertise and passion to guide you through this journey, offering holistic solutions for a positive and joyous feeding experience.
With over 17 years of experience, I have extensive skills to address feeding challenges comprehensively. Whether it's complex feeding disorders, craniofacial abnormalities, picky eating, mealtime stress, and/or fostering healthy connections through food, I'm here to support you every step of the way.

University Lecturer

As a highly experienced speech pathologist with and a specialization in paediatric feeding, I am thrilled to extend my expertise through mentoring opportunities for fellow speech pathologists.

Mentoring sessions are tailored to individual needs, fostering a dynamic exchange of knowledge and practical insights. Sessions can be offered through zoom or face to face.
