Messy eating isn’t bad manners—it’s brain development 🧠✨

Letting babies and toddlers play with their food is actually a powerful way to build essential skills. From squishing and smearing to tasting and exploring, messy eating helps children:

👶 Develop fine motor skills (grasping, hand-eye coordination)
👅 Build oral motor skills for chewing and swallowing
🖐️ Explore textures, smells, and tastes through sensory play
🥦 Feel more comfortable trying new foods (hello, less picky eating!)

Research shows kids need to interact with food—touching, playing, even getting it everywhere—before they’re ready to eat it confidently.

So next time mealtime gets messy… lean into it!
Mess = learning, confidence, and positive food experiences 💛

💧 Introducing water — one small sip at a time

According to the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) infant feeding guidelines:

✨ From around 6 months, babies can start having small amounts of cooled boiled water — offered in a cup with meals
✨ Breast milk or formula remains their main source of nutrition during this stage
✨ From 12 months, water becomes the main drink, and tap water can be safely offered

It’s not about replacing milk — it’s about building skills, confidence, and healthy habits for the future 💛

Part 5 of our introducing solids series

Starting solids is such an exciting milestone—but knowing what to avoid is just as important as knowing what to offer.

From hidden choking hazards to foods that little tummies aren’t ready for yet, a few simple choices can make a big difference in keeping your baby safe and healthy.

Save this as a quick reminder for your feeding journey, and remember—every baby learns at their own pace. You’ve got this 👶✨

I have never laughed so hard in a meeting. This was a hilarious prank we did on our boss at my other job last week

Part 4 of our introducing solids series. Breastmilk is more than just nutrition — it continues to support your baby’s growth, comfort, and immune system well into toddlerhood 🤍

In the second year of life, breastfeeding still provides valuable nutrients, helps protect against illness, and offers a sense of security during big developmental changes. For mums, it can also support ongoing bonding and may continue to offer health benefits too.

Whether it’s for nourishment, comfort, or connection, breastfeeding beyond 12 months is a beautiful and normal choice — for as long as it feels right for you and your child ✨

Part 3 of our introducing solids series

Starting solids is an exciting milestone—and texture matters just as much as taste! 🥄✨

From around 6 months, begin with smooth and mashed foods that are gentle and easy to manage. As your baby grows, gradually introduce more textures like soft pieces, minced foods, and finger foods to support chewing skills and build confidence at mealtimes.

If your baby prefers finger foods, make sure that it is cut into finger shaped pieces and super soft. You should be able to squish the food to the roof of your mouth easily.

Every baby is different—follow their cues, go at their pace, and enjoy the messy, magical journey of food discovery 💚

Starting solids can feel overwhelming for parents!

Simple, nutritious first foods like soft fruits, cooked vegetables, eggs, and yogurt can help babies explore new tastes and textures. Including foods containing iron is also really important.

Remember, it may take several (realistically 10-20) tries before a baby accepts a new food — and that’s completely normal!

Stay tuned for more introducing solids information.
