Welcome to Eat Play Love.
The struggle of feeding littles is real and more common than you might think.
I am dedicated to helping you work through challenges in the comfort of your own home and to helping you find joy in nourishing and nurturing your child for life.
Eat Play Love is a pediatric occupational therapy practice in Orange County, CA specializing in treatment of feeding and swallowing challenges from breast or bottle feeding to semi-solids to table foods. I am currently offering in-home services across Orange County, CA with the option for telehealth across the state of California.
If you have concerns about your child's breastfeeding, bottle-feeding, eating solids, gross motor, or sensory development, please reach out to set up a free 30-minute phone consultation.
About me.
Hi, I'm Brittany! I'm a mamma of two and the owner of Eat Play Love.
Whether at home, on a picnic blanket or at a restaurant, I love sharing meals with good friends and family. It brings me joy to see my kids trying a new food, spice or flavor for the first time and allowing space for their own palate and preferences to develop.
