Your baby is six months old and it’s time to get the books out again and learn all about feeding your baby solids.

Questions, Questions...

So many questions: when do you start, what food do you start with, how much, when, how do you make it... the list goes on. It can be a stressful time with conflicting information and inconsistent opinions. Whether you attend one of Sprout Right's workshops: starting your baby on solids or making homemade baby food, or have a one-on-one consultation with our nutritionist, finding out what is right for your baby is what we specialize in.

We support you each step of the way, from puree to finger food, to picky eaters and beyond. We answer your questions and help to make sense of everything that you have heard and read.

What Your Baby Needs

At different stages of your baby's development, there are certain nutrients that need to be included in their diet. Knowing what they are and what foods supply the best combinations helps you give your baby a complete diet that lets your baby continue to grow strong and healthy. You will feel more confident knowing that what you are feeding your baby is covering all nutritional requirements.

There may be times when your baby refuses to eat certain foods, or there may be foods that your baby never likes. Learning of alternatives and what you can do to get similar nutrients or hide those foods in a recipe ensures there are no shortfalls in your baby's diet.

Making Your Own Baby Food

It's easy and is economical with both your time and money. Sprout Right's workshops get you started with everything you need to know. Steaming, mashing, pureeing, you name it, you'll learn about it. Taste testing between homemade and store bought illustrates the differences in tastes and how that may affect your baby's palate.

Food Allergies and Sensitivities

Food allergies and sensitivities have become quite a concern for some parents. Reactions to foods are far more common these days and knowing what to expect and what you can do to help minimize any potential risk is another of Sprout Right's specialties. Take the guess work out of when to introduce certain foods and what to do about your concerns by seeing a Sprout Right Nutritionist.
