She completed her Masters in Occupational Therapy in 1999 through the University of South Australia. She has worked across the world (Australia; UK; Cambodia; Romania; Bhutan) in both metropolitan and rural settings, hospital, community and home visiting, face to face and via telehealth.

Pippa has worked in the area of feeding her whole career, starting in a special school with children with severe physical and intellectual disabilities, before moving to the Royal Children’s Hospital Feeding Clinic. From there she went back to the community working for the Child Development Service as well as setting up and supervising the Australian Catholic University’s Student Feeding Clinic. She also mentors and supervises graduate therapists in public and private practice in all areas of OT.

Contemporary training includes Sensory Oral Sequential Feeding (SOS); Feeding Therapy: It’s Not Just About Swallowing (Melanie Potock); Feeding Relationship and Eating Competence (Ellen Satter); Feeding The Whole Child (Suzanne Evans Morris), Circle of Security Training.

Here's the questions we asked Pippa during the live webinar that was recorded on 7th September 2022:

  • Who are you and how did you get into your interest area?

  • Why did you choose your focus article? How do these results impact feeding therapy and intervention? What is the link to proprioception? * What do you wish you knew when you started out in the area?

  • How do you get information from parents about real time meal behaviours? Video?

  • What is your advice to parents about the best time of day to explore non-preferred foods? With meals or during a separate play time?

  • In the emerging psychology and parenting literature, there is a strong move away from behavioural approaches and rewards. Yet this seems to be the basis for a lot of our feeding therapy evidence. What is your take on this and how do you incorporate this into practice?

  • How do we know when there is a problem? When does a picky eater become problematic?
