Introduction to Solids
With live product demos and door prizes from Beaba.
To celebrate the launch of their Baby's First Solids Online Course, Kat from Nourish to Nurture Nutrition and Eliza from Baby Safe Basics have teamed up to bring you an in-person masterclass covering the key parts of starting solids like what to feed your baby and how to do it safely - fun and fear-free.
Kat will walk you through which nutrients to focus on, how to easily put together a balanced meal without buying fancy ingredients, and how to navigate common feeding challenges like CMPA, intolerances, and introducing allergens.
Eliza will cover the safety side of starting solids, including signs of readiness, how to prepare finger foods safely, spotting allergic reactions, and knowing the difference between gagging and choking.
Everyone who joins will also get a fridge-friendly guide to building balanced meals for your baby.
