Programs
At the moment we have 3 vacancies open for new families in 2024 in Portugal, contact us
The intensive weaning camp is an option that we designed for children who have a higher level of tube dependency, due to medical and psychological conditions, like massive aversive behavior and food rejection where the online support it’s not the most effective type of intervention for treatment. Also, for families who would feel more secure with a present team supervising and giving support during the weaning treatment.
With our program and treatment concept, we are pioneers in the field of outpatient tube weaning. We will focus entirely on your child individually but we will get families together for some sessions. In this way, we can accompany you individually at mealtimes between five to 10 days, we will be by your side between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. with four to five meals.
Therefore, we will work with only three children and their families per camp. Vacancies are very limited. You can check vacancies for each camp, just contact us.
