Together, we’ll explore flexible strategies that respect your baby’s cues and preferences, ensuring that every meal is a step toward building lifelong healthy habits.
We what we do
We passionately believe that how we introduce our little ones to food can shape their relationship with it for years to come. At Starting Solids Australia, we’re dedicated to transforming the narrative around food. We want to empower you to move beyond the old ideas that label food as good or bad, that insist children must clear their plates, or that their body shape needs to be controlled. Instead, we advocate for responsive feeding, gentle parenting, and body positivity for every age.
As mothers and health professionals, we understand the challenges of introducing solids can feel overwhelming. We’ve walked this path, navigating the highs and lows of mealtimes, and we truly empathize with your desire to get it right. That’s why we’re here for you—ready to meet you exactly where you are and support you in finding an approach that works for your family.
Our mission is to provide you with personalized guidance that resonates with your unique situation. We offer not just professional expertise but also empathy and understanding. Together, we’ll navigate the delicate balance of what’s ideal and what’s achievable, ensuring that you feel confident and empowered on this journey.
