Bringing Calm and Confidence to Your Child’s Mealtimes

Mealtimes should be a source of comfort, not stress. Yet for parents of children with complex medical needs, ensuring proper nutrition can feel overwhelming. You manage medications, monitor equipment, and worry if your child is getting what they need.

It is a demanding role that requires immense strength.

At Services Offered From Above (SOFA), we understand the weight of this responsibility. We’re here to lighten it by providing professional, in-home feeding assistance for children and young adults so you can focus on the moments that matter most.
Our team of licensed caregivers becomes a natural part of your home, offering a steady, expert hand to ensure every meal is a safe, calm, and positive experience.

Comprehensive Feeding Assistance for Children and Young Adults

Our feeding assistance program is built on two core principles: professional expertise and genuine compassion

We begin by listening to you. We learn about your child’s diagnosis and daily routines, as well as the specific challenges you face. From there, we build a comprehensive, personalized care plan that provides tangible relief and expert support right where you need it most.

When our licensed caregivers provide feeding assistance for children or young adults with special medical needs, they ensure your child is safe, comfortable, and receiving precise nutrition.

We build sincere relationships based on trust and respect for your home and routine. This allows you to focus on work, other children, or simply take a moment for yourself.

If you’re ready to learn how we can help, you can schedule a free consultation with our team.
