About Us

Starting Solids aims to support, educate & empower parents In the quest to find out more about baby feeding, and beyond!

I’m Sarah a mum of 2 with a huge passion for everything to do with feeding babies & children.  This came about after I struggled when my eldest starting eating solids (weaning). 

 After endless hours going down rabbit holes online at 2am and countless weaning & parenting books (all telling me something different!) I felt thoroughly confused… Long story short, 5 years and another baby later, I’ve retrained as a weaning specialist and now eat, sleep & breath weaning!

From Introduction to Starting Solids Workshops (ideal for babies 3 – 7 months), private 1:1’s, group workshops, online consultations, meal planning, cookery workshops, Babies Who Brunch events and a heck of a lot more!.... I cover all aspects of preparing to start weaning, right through to fussy eating toddlers / pre-schoolers. 
Aswell as the science, biology & psychology of weaning I also love recipe development.  

I passionately believe that babies and children should eat healthy, sensible food from the start.  The underpinnings of a healthy relationship with food starts with enjoying it and having a happy food journey.  

As parents most of us fear the kitchen once we start weaning so I aim to reinvigorate meals with recipes that can be cooked one handed  (even whilst juggling an unhappy baby) in as short a time as possible and can be batch cooked & frozen!
