weaning onto solids course individual courses

From June 2011 our popular Starting Solids Class Will be held at Leiths school of Food and Wine in west London. The class introduces you and your baby to the world of proper food. When to start? What to give your baby, and at which feeds? These questions and many more will be answered in a session which is part theory, part demonstration and part practical as you make your own first fresh baby foods!

A pack of notes will be given to you to accompany the session, and to take away with you-so no need to take notes.

The session follows a traditional approach to weaning. Starting off with easy to digest, pureed foods, introducing finger foods and moving on to mashed up versions of family meals.
