Nightingale Occupational Therapy

Nightingale Occupational Therapy Providing Occupational Therapy services to children ages 0-18 in the Comox Valley area. I have done presentations on Sensory Processing and Picky Eating.

I am an Occupational Therapist (OT) and have been working with children ages 0-6 since 2009. I am currently employed at Dogwood Place Child and Youth Development Centre as the Senior Occupational Therapist. I am branching out to offer some OT services privately to children ages 0-18 in the Comox Valley area and school age children in the Campbell River area. I enjoy teaching others about our sensory systems and the strategies we can use to be alert, calm and focussed for learning. I particularly enjoy working with children that have difficulties with feeding as this is such an important skill where OT can make a huge difference. I have taken many courses to develop my skills in all areas. Some very influential courses include:
- Sensory-Based Motor Dysfunction
- The Get Permission Approach to Sensory Mealtime Challenges
- Introduction to the Neuro-Developmental Treatment Approach of Infants and Children
- DIR Floortime Model
- Broken Attachments
- Building Blocks for Sensory Integrations
- NDT Treatment of the Baby and Young Child
- SOS (Sequential Oral Sensory) Approach to Feeding
- Therapeutic Listening and Quickshifts

Please contact me if you would like more information about how I could help you and your family.

When it comes to helping picky eaters, there are many areas we need to assess and think about in order to help a child expand their diet.

Picky eating is a journey that continues to evolve. There are no quick fixes and support is available for this journey.

If you have any questions, please reach out.

👉Co-regulation: https://www.theottoolbox.com/co-regulation/

👉Co-regulation is the ability to regulate emotions and behaviors to soothe and manage stressing internal sensory input or external situations, with the support and direction of a connecting individual.

👉Co-regulation is nurturing connection of another individual that supports regulation needs through the use of strategies, tools, and calming techniques in order to self-soothe or respond in times of stress.

👉Co-regulation and self-regulation are part of the developmental process.
