Just look at our office manager’s adorable baby, Shep, enjoying some blueberries! 🫐
(And yes… we are all obsessed.)
It’s such a sweet reminder that introducing first foods can be fun, simple, and baby-led.
Have you heard of baby-led weaning (BLW)?
Baby-led weaning is a method of introducing solid foods where babies feed themselves soft, appropriately prepared foods instead of being fed purées. It allows babies to explore texture, taste, and independence right from the start.
Here are a few reasons families love it:
✨ Encourages self-regulation, babies learn to listen to their hunger and fullness cues
✨ Supports fine motor skill development
✨ Exposes babies to a variety of textures early on
✨ Makes mealtimes feel more natural and inclusive
Of course, every baby (and every family) is different. Whether you choose purées, baby-led weaning, or a mix of both, the goal is confident, nourished little ones and peaceful mealtimes.
We’d love to hear from you!
What were your baby’s first foods? 🥑🍠🍓
