feeding therapist, speech pathologist in Charlotte

Welcome!

Hi! I’m Vicky, the founder of Tiny Tastes. I’m passionate about helping families navigate feeding challenges with confidence and ease. As a pediatric feeding speech-language pathologist and certified lactation counselor, I work to support families from the prenatal stage, through early childhood. My experience spans hospitals, outpatient clinics, private practice, and early intervention.

I believe that strong personal connections with families are the foundation of successful feeding therapy. My mission is to empower you with the knowledge, confidence, and skills to nourish your child and nourish your journey.
