Starting Solids in 3 easy steps

  1. Let your baby lead the way!

A happy, healthy eater for life begins with a self-feeding baby. When your baby feeds himself or herself in a no-pressure environment, they are more likely to establish a healthy relationship with food early on and become a more adventurous eater.

2. Embrace variety with our checklist of 101 foods.

The more foods your baby is exposed to before the age of one, the better. That is why we have curated a list of 101 different foods suitable for babies from six months to one year old, and beyond. Plus, we will teach you how to prepare and serve them correctly.

3. Cook & Serve Family meals from the start®

Your baby can eat what you eat from day one of starting solids, saving you time and money vs. making separate meals! All of our meals are designed to be shared by parents and babies.
