Introducing Solid Foods Consults

Personalized for Your Baby’s Needs

Introducing solid foods can be both exciting and overwhelming. Whether you’re unsure when to start, how to begin, or how to balance solids with breastfeeding or bottle-feeding, we’re here to help.

Our Introducing Solid Foods Consults are led by experienced Registered Nurses, providing evidence-based guidance on infant nutrition, starting solids, and feeding transitions—so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.
