The Feeding Difficulties in Young Children: A Policy and Practice Framework

In young children, feeding difficulties can look like significantly limited food preferences, hypersensitivity to food temperatures or food textures, and pocketing food without swallowing.

The Feeding Difficulties in Young Children: A Policy and Practice Framework – Olga Tennison Autism Research Centre provides a structure for multidisciplinary collaboration, supporting individualised, context-sensitive, family-centred, and inclusive care. Early, evidence-based, individualised support can transform feeding into a foundation for better health, development, and child and caregiver wellbeing.
