About Us
Emily and Morgan created KC Infant Feeding with one purpose in mind. Balance. Their paths first crossed in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) supporting babies who struggled with feeding. With their skill sets and knowledge they provided parents and caregivers with information and techniques to help dissipate feeding difficulties. However, it wasn’t until they both experienced feeding struggles with their own newborns that they realized how essential the inclusion of family mental health considerations are in the development of feeding plans. This balanced approach ensures long term success and thriving infants. They now approach families they support with compassion, knowledge, and empowerment that comes from years of experience working with infants and personal moments of struggle, hope, and success.
