Tierra Momplaisir
Founder & Lead OT
Hello! I’m Tierra Momplaisir, and for more than 13 years, I’ve been dedicated to helping children grow, learn, and thrive through occupational therapy. My journey began at Florida Southern College, where I earned my bachelor’s degree, followed by a master’s in occupational therapy from Alabama State University in 2012. I’m currently furthering my education by pursuing a Doctorate in Occupational Therapy, with expected graduation in Spring 2026—a reflection of my commitment to lifelong learning and providing the highest quality care to the children and families I serve.
​
From the very start of my career, I knew pediatrics was where my heart belonged. Along the way, I discovered my true passion: feeding therapy. Supporting children as they overcome feeding challenges—and empowering families throughout that journey—has been one of the most meaningful and rewarding parts of my work.
​
To ensure each child receives compassionate and evidence-based care, I’ve completed extensive training in specialized feeding approaches, including
-
Sequential Oral Sensory (SOS) Approach
-
AEIOU Systematic Approach to Feeding
-
& programs through the Get Permission Institute.
​
I am also honored to be participating in two advanced feeding mentorships—Thrive by Spectrum Pediatrics and Pediatric Feeding Therapy LLC—in Fall 2025.
​
Beyond my professional life, my greatest inspiration comes from home: my three wonderful children. They’ve taught me patience, creativity, and the joy of celebrating small victories. The number three holds a special place in my heart, symbolizing the love and motivation that guide my work each day. You’ll see this meaning reflected in my company’s logo and woven into everything I do—a heartfelt reminder of the little ones who inspire me to make a difference
