Starting Solids In-person Group Workshop
Starting Solids In-person Group Workshop
Gain confidence in approaching your baby's introduction to solid foods (in person group session)
Service Description
Babies grow so fast! Before you know it, you'll begin thinking about transitioning your baby from a milk-based diet onto solid foods. Whether you decide to go with purees and spoon feeding, or move directly onto finger foods, you may have questions about the different approaches and the practical issues about getting started. During this 2 hour workshop, parents and carers will learn about the current guidelines for introducing solid foods to their baby. We will discuss the various methods for introducing solids, discuss the practical points of getting started and how to stay safe. We will finish the session by creating a meal plan together as a group that you will be able to use once your baby is eating solid foods. Up-to-date and evidence-based information on the recommendations for how and when to introduce solid foods will be discussed, as well as how to keep your baby safe. In addition to sharing information, my goal is to help parents and carers build confidence in the decisions they make about how to transition their baby onto solid foods. Specifically, we will discuss: - different approaches to introducing solid foods, exploring the pros and cons of each - how to determine your baby's readiness for solid foods and what the current guidelines suggest - safety issues, such as introducing allergenic foods and recognising the difference between choking and gagging - meal planning and how you can adapt your family's normal foods to be suitable for your baby This is an interactive session and will include group discussions and activities. This workshop will allow you to explore the different options, together with other parents and carers going through this transition themselves.
