Perfect for… 

An Early Intervention Agency

that wants more therapists to be able to provide feeding therapy
 
instead of waiting for the one therapist with experience to come back from maternity leave.

A Speech Language Pathologist

who wants be prepared for the questions parents are (always) asking 
 
instead of feeling overwhelmed when it comes to taking on feeding therapy cases

An Occupational Therapist

who wants to develop a specialized, high-demand niche
 
because when your skills are specific, you attract specific clients..

Feeding cases can be overwhelming,
and many therapists turn them down, not because they aren’t capable, but because they don’t have a clear framework.
Introducing Solids
gives you a comprehensive, practical understanding that replaces overwhelm with direction, so you can step into feeding therapy cases with more confidence and less second-guessing.

Get answers to questions you’re grappling with right now

Why do some babies eagerly explore food… while others gag, cry, or completely refuse solids?
Is that gagging during meals normal — or a red flag you shouldn’t ignore?
 

What subtle signs during feeding are most therapists overlooking — signs that could completely change your treatment plan?

What should happen in the first five minutes of a feeding therapy visit to set the stage for success?
 How do bottle feeding schedules sabotage solid food progress?
Is traditional spoon feeding helping or hurting feeding development?
Is baby-led weaning safe for babies with feeding challenges?
What if the baby isn’t refusing food;
What if the baby is refusing pain?
All these questions plus more are covered in

Meet
Your Presenter

Hi! I’m Shalva Sauer, MS, CCC-SLP,
feeding and swallowing specialist here in Lakewood, NJ for 18 years. With allergies and digestive disorders becoming increasingly common in children, the need for pediatric feeding and swallowing support is on the rise. That’s why I’d like to chart an easy path forward for therapists who want to develop real expertise in pediatric feeding — so every child with feeding challenges can get the valuable help they need. I’m excited to share with you my Texture Building™ oral sensorimotor treatment approach and the T.A.S.T.E™ session structure, both used by the excellent therapists I’ve trained.
