She considers the whole-child and responsively applies a range of knowledge and tools gathered over the years, including the Sequential Oral Sensory (SOS) Approach to Feeding, the work of Ellyn Satter, and Responsive Feeding Therapy approach.
Inés is a neurodiversity affirming practitioner with has a special interest in developmental conditions which may present feeding differences or challenges, such as Autism, ADHD and sensory processing differences.

“Creating a space for parents to process and understand their feeding concerns, is one of my priorities. When parents are able to make sense of their feeding concerns and feel supported, they are able to gain confidence in the way that they approach feeding, which in-turn allows them to better support their child/ren with their food learning.”
