Part 1: Is Your Baby Ready? Spotting the Signs for Solid Foods

This is an exciting time for parents and infants; we will discuss infant readiness, including tips and tricks to get them invested.

Part 1 of our 5-part Transitioning to Solid Foods class covers everything you need to know about solid foods readiness so you know what to expect.

Part 2: First Tastes: Crafting a Menu for Your Weaning Baby

The process can feel like a rollercoaster. There are moments when it is exhilarating and challenging and moments when you will spend more time cleaning after the feed than you did to feed your baby. It is fun; you will see facial expressions you probably have not seen before, but it is also what makes it so unique.  Your infant is achieving a milestone! 

Part 2 of our Transitioning to Solid Foods Class provides an overview of choosing appropriate first foods, gradually introducing one new food at a time to monitor allergies and tips for preparation. 

Part 3: Cultivating Nutritional Variety: A Baby's Guide to a Balanced Diet

 When it comes to a Balanced Diet, in our Introducing Solid Food to Baby series, a variety of foods to support optimal nutrition is essential.

Part 3 of our Transitioning to Solid Foods class discusses different food groups and guides in incorporating a range of textures and flavors.

Part 4: Safeguarding Your Baby: Understanding and Managing Food Allergies

This is key. First, you need to know if there is any family history of allergies and discuss it with your physician before incorporating solid foods. If the family has a positive history of allergies, you may want to abstain from such meals. 

Part 4 of this class helps you learn more about common allergenic foods, how to recognize allergenic reactions, and what to do.

Part 5: Mealtime Milestones: Nurturing Happy, Healthy Eaters

There is a lot of confusion about when to feed your baby, we will cover an ideal feeding schedule for your infant and tell you why it is important.

Part 5 of our Introducing Solid Food to Baby series will equip you with establishing a regular meal time, introducing finger foods and encouraging self-feeding skills, and transitioning from puree to mashed and chopped foods.
