Will your baby be starting solid foods soon? Maybe you’re hoping to help your baby develop self-feeding skills. Baby-Led Weaning, or babies feeding themselves solid foods, is surging in popularity versus traditional pureed “baby food” feeding. At this workshop we will discuss:
- Why parents are choosing BLW
- Signs of readiness
- How to start
- Top beginner foods
- Foods to avoid
- Choking vs. gagging + how to prevent choking
- Allergens
- Vital nutrients for baby
- Hot topics, like dining out and tips for other caregivers
- Sample first week menu + recipes to get started
This workshop is for you if you:
- Are preparing to feed your baby using BLW or like the idea of BLW, but aren’t sure where to start
- Have already started purees, but are interested in helping your baby become more independent with feeding and being a part of family meals
- Have a 3-5 month old who recently has or will be starting solids soon
- Have a 6-9 month old and wishing to help them develop more independence with feeding
- Are feeling overwhelmed with feeding your baby – or family in general
- Want to connect and share experiences with other new parents
My goal for this workshop is that new parents are able to connect with each other and become inspired and comfortable to feed their baby through baby-led weaning.
Bonus with Registration:
An invite to our PRIVATE BLW Facebook Group – so you can get advice that is relevant to YOUR feeding experience as you go through it with your child.
Workshop investment is $45. Seating may be limited, so advanced registration is preferred.
See what people are saying about Kelly’s Baby-Led Weaning Workshops:
“I took this course with Kelly and it was an amazing introduction to BLW. We’re planning to start introducing our little one to foods soon, and I feel like I have such a better understanding and base to start from. Kelly offered great tips, shared some personal (and relatable) stories of her BLW journey, and provided some great recipes to get the ball rolling. I highly recommend this course for anyone looking to learn more! It was so much easier to participate in this, than to wade through ALL the information out there on the internet–and this way I knew I was getting it from a reliable source!” – Ashley S.
“Great workshop! Very good and useful information. I will recommend this class to other parents.” – A workshop participant
