Is your little one ready to start solids?

The prospect of feeding your tiny human solids for the first time can be so exciting. What will their favourite food be? I can't wait to watch their adorable reactions to the different tastes and textures!

But equally, this milestone can also be confronting and full of uncertainty. Where do I start? What method of feeding should I use? How do I ensure my baby is safe? What about gagging and choking? How can I make sure my little one is nourished? 

When beginning the journey of starting solids, you’ll quickly learn there is lots to think about, and LOTS of conflicting advice on what is the best ways to introduce your little one to foods, when to start and with what.  It can be overwhelming and confusing.

Tiny Hearts is here to change that.

This course will hold your hand through the solids journey. Our educators will provide evidence-based information to help you make informed decisions about feeding your little one their first foods.

Take away the fear around first foods and focus on creating special memories with your little love during this milestone.

Cut through the noise and uncertainty around starting solids. Instead, learn from the best educators in the dietician and safety space to set you and your baby up for solids success.

Who are my educators?

We've assembled two powerhouse expert educators to provide clear, helpful information so you can confidently introduce solids to your little one.

Amy Roylance is a paediatric dietician who has been working to help families feed their babies and children for almost 15 years. Amy will be offering insight into how to approach introducing solids with your baby and ensuring their foods are nutritionally rounded out for the best development of your little human.

As a former advanced life support paramedic and Mum to two, Nikki Jurcutz will educate you on how to prevent choking through creating a safe eating environment, information on ways to make food safe and how to approach introducing allergens.

Easing the idea of solids!

The course for starting solids has definitely eased my mind for when it’s soon time with our little one. We feel like we have information for all methods and reasoning behind the “why”. Highly recommend!

The Introducing Solids course was a godsend!

I have been trying to navigate the early stages of solids for a couple of months now - and it is an overwhelming, confusing & information overloaded environment out there for a first time mum! Tiny Hearts' Introducing Solids course couldn't have come at a better time - I jumped on it and finished the course in a couple of days (which speaks to how digestible & engaging the content is!). This course answered all of my questions about solids and, having spent a lot of time researching starting solids on the internet, I think it's the best resource out there. It's informative, unbiased and packed with easy-to-use tips & tricks and recipes. I feel much more confident and less overwhelmed (+ terrified!) having gone through the course. Highly recommend!

Introducing Solids

I am a second time mum and did this course out of curiosity and to learn more. When I had my first boy and he started solids, he ended up very sick (not from solids) and so our solids journey was not straight forward. So I wanted to prepare better this time as to how much my little one should be eating and when and get a general overview. I found this course extremely helpful and would recommend to anyone you don't have to be a first time mum to do this course.

Introducing Solids Course

The Introducing Solids course really gave me peace of mind with all the information I needed in one package with downloadable resources to take away. As with all Tiny Hearts courses, the online videos are very well produced and paced. I was able to understand what the essential prerequisites for feeding were, but also different approaches I can take based on personal preference.

Introducing Solids Course

I purchased the Introducing Solids Course & loved it. This is my 3rd child but I had forgotten everything about solids so it was great to refresh the memory. I really liked the information on introducing allergens & the downloadable guides. I would recommend this course to anyone about to start the solids journey with their baby!
