Since 2010, I have been supporting parents in the area of moving babies onto solid food. You can schedule an individual session with me, where I will discuss with you and your partner how to determine if your baby is ready for solid food. We’ll cover what the guidelines suggest and the reasons behind them, various approaches to introducing solids, and the range of foods that babies can consume. I provide comprehensive infant feeding guidance to help you navigate this new stage.

Additionally, I can facilitate group sessions for you and your friends, either via Zoom or at a location that suits you. This setting allows for shared experiences and collective new parent support. My role enables me to deliver quality infant feeding guidance tailored to your needs.
