Nourish, Feed & Thrive

A gentle, family focused, evidenced based and responsive approach to infant and child feeding challenges. But beliefs and passion alone are not enough!

Here are Nourish Feed and Thrive, we provide a gently, family focused, evidenced based and responsive approach to infant and children feeding challenges. Pleasurable feeding can lay the groundwork for infant-health, foster the parent-child relationship and establish a lifelong positive relationship with food. We love nothing more than supporting a mum to enjoy breastfeeding her baby or assist a family to turn stress and battle filled mealtimes into a time of fun and connection. To ensure that we are always providing the very highest level of support to the families, we seek out experts both locally and internationally to learn from. Our work is all evidence based and draws on the latest teaching of training programs.

On the weekend our team (minus a few) came together to celebrate another incredible year. So grateful for this group and everything they bring, day in and day out! 🥰🩷🥂

Bec and one of her little legends cooked up the most hilariously adorable Santa in session this week 🎅🏻✨
 A bit of sauce, a sprinkle of cheese and a whole lot of imagination is the perfect recipe for connection, confidence and fun in the kitchen.

These moments are such a lovely reminder that therapy doesn’t always look like sitting at a table, sometimes it looks like creating a very goofy (and very tasty!) Santa together ❤️

Our tree is up and we’re ready to celebrate our first Christmas in our clinic ✨🎄

The Nourish, Feed & Thrive team absolutely love this time of the year, I think this would have to be one of our favourite holidays! 🎅🏼

Loving all the gorgeous blossoms popping up around our clinic this week, it’s bringing such a calm, gentle vibe to the space 🌸

It’s always our goal to create an environment where our little friends feel safe, relaxed and ready to play, learn and explore. We feel very lucky to welcome families into a space that feels this beautiful 🥰

Babies always want what we have, and that’s because they learn by watching us! 👀💧

Whether it’s food, cups, spoons or even what’s on our plate, little ones are constantly observing and mimicking. This curiosity is such an important part of development, it helps them build the skills they’ll need for feeding, talking, and exploring the world around them.
So next time your bub reaches for your drink or wants to try what you’re having, it’s their way of saying “I’m interested!” 🥰

👻 Halloween might be over, but the spooky fun continued in our sessions this week!
A little bit of novelty (like themed treats or creative food play) can make new foods feel less scary and a lot more exciting to explore. 🍎✨

Is your little one ready to start solids? 🍽️

Starting solids is such an exciting milestone, but it can be tricky to know when the time is right!

Some signs your baby might be ready include:�
👶 Sitting upright with little support�
👅 Showing interest in food and reaching for what you’re eating�
👄 Opening their mouth when food is offered�
🤲 Good head and neck control�
🚫 The tongue-thrust reflex (pushing food out) has reduced

Every baby develops at their own pace - there’s no rush! The goal is to make mealtimes enjoyable, safe, and responsive to your little one’s cues. 💛

Speech pathologists support individuals across a wide range of areas- from speech and language to voice and swallowing. For those who have a special interest in feeding, the work often goes even deeper. We complete additional training to understand how muscles, nerves, sensations, feeding equipment, and the environment all influence feeding. Whether that’s breast, bottle, tube, or family mealtimes.

However, one area that speech pathologists are not trained in is supporting the mother in a breastfeeding pair- things like milk supply, pumping, and breast care. These were the missing pieces Makaela needed to truly support families in our community.

That’s why Makaela went on to complete extra training to become an IBCLC (International Board Certified Lactation Consultant). It allows her to bring both sides together- supporting mum and bub in navigating feeding challenges with confidence and care. 💛

It was such a pleasure to present today alongside paediatrician and allergist Dr Eliza O’Reilly to the wonderful nurses of the paediatric ward and emergency department at Pindara Private Hospital 🌿

We shared insights on introducing allergens to little ones- an important topic for families navigating the start of solids, especially when there’s a higher risk of allergic reactions.

👀 Watch this space! We have some exciting opportunities coming soon for families supporting their little ones through this stage of feeding and development.
