Not every feeding difficulty looks dramatic. Sometimes it's a baby who tires quickly, takes an hour to finish a bottle, coughs or gags during feeds, arches away, or never seems satisfied. Families often seek support when feeding feels stressful and they're not sure why and that's exactly what an evaluation is for.

Using a compassionate, evidence-based approach, Cornerstone works alongside you to identify the root cause of your baby's feeding challenges and build a plan tailored to your family. Every in-home evaluation begins with listening to your story, followed by a thorough oral-motor and feeding assessment. From there, recommendations and a plan are given with doable next steps you can carry out at home. If recommended, follow-up therapy sessions are available in-person and virtually, for continued support between in-home visits.
