STARTING SOLIDS WITH CONFIDENCE

Feeling overwhelmed by conflicting advice about introducing solid foods?

If you're wondering:

• Is my baby ready for solids?

• Should I start with purées or baby-led weaning?

• What equipment do I actually need?

• How do I know if my baby is eating enough?

• What about choking, allergies and mealtimes?

You're not alone.

Join us for a relaxed, evidence-based workshop designed for parents of babies who want clear information without rigid rules.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

✓ How to recognise the signs that your baby is ready for solids

✓ The latest evidence and current feeding guidelines

✓ Understanding the different approaches to introducing solids

✓ Purées, finger foods or a combination approach?

✓ Essential equipment (and what you can skip!)

✓ Introducing common allergens safely

✓ How milk feeds and solid foods work together

✓ Creating positive mealtime experiences

✓ Trusting your baby's unique development and appetite

OUR APPROACH

Every baby is different.

This workshop isn't about following a strict plan or perfect schedule. Instead, we'll help you understand your options, feel confident assessing your baby's readiness, and choose an approach that works for your baby, your values and your family life. You'll leave with practical knowledge, trusted resources and the confidence to begin your solids journey.
