    “I would highly recommend Mel's course to all parents' venturing into solids. I attended her course for my second child starting solids and wish it had been around for my first. She shares so much knowledge and insight and the content provided in the course and notebook is invaluable with lots of practical examples and suggestions. Mel has a wonderful way of leaving you feeling encouraged and empowered to embark on your solids journey.” - Caity

  • Testimonials

    “Mel made me aware of lots of things to optimise the nutrition of my baby that I wasn't aware of when I introduced solids with my first baby. She is passionate about baby nourishment, supportive, caring and its so refreshing to see someone in person who wants to create awareness of best practices for our precious minis and give them the best start in life. Her workshops are fun, informative and supportive. I wish I knew someone like her on our first journey”.

  • Testimonials

    “I went to Mel’s solids workshop just before my son started his solids journey a few months ago. Mel’s knowledge, patience and positive encouragement is what got me through the teachings of puree to BLW. I always refer to the material she provided alongside how nutrition really impacts each developmental stage. Soo insightful! I highly recommend this course to new mum’s who don’t really know what to offer their baby and want to start on the right, healthy foot. Thanks again Mel”.
