Emily (Tipton) Robertson
OTR/L, SOS-Trained, ITDS
Welcome to Tiny Tummies Therapy! I am a practicing Pediatric Occupational Therapist—board certified, licensed, and registered, serving children within our central Florida community for over four years.
I hold a Bachelor of Science in Health Sciences with a minor in Health Services Administration from the University of Central Florida and a Master of Science in Occupational Therapy from McMaster University.
With over four years of experience in pediatric occupational therapy, I quickly realized the various feeding challenges families and children are facing surrounding their diet and development emerging as early as infancy. Thus, my passion for helping empower children and families through evaluating and treating pediatric feeding disorders emerged.
I specialize in supporting infants and young children (developmentally 0-6 years old) with a variety of feeding challenges—from mild concerns to complex needs. I’ve pursued advanced training in the Sequential Oral Sensory (SOS) Approach to Feeding to provide evidence-based, play-based strategies that foster positive mealtime experiences. As an Infant and Toddler Developmental Specialist, I’m passionate about working closely with families during the early years to support meaningful progress towards achieving developmental milestones and building confident, capable eaters.
I am a member of the American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA) community, continuously pursuing additional education and training in the pediatric feeding realm to be the best practitioner I can be. I look forward to working and collaborating with your family!
