Solid Starts: Baby Food App

Food guidance for starting solids

Solid Starts: Baby Food App helps parents introduce solid foods to babies through baby-led weaning, finger foods, spoon feeding, or a move away from purées. It suits families looking for practical guidance on what to serve, how to prepare it, and how to approach common feeding concerns.

A reference point for first foods

The app includes information on more than 400 foods. Entries cover nutrition, choking and allergen considerations, and age-based guidance for cutting and serving food. Videos of babies eating offer a visual reference, while articles explain topics such as signs of readiness, cup drinking, infant CPR, and introducing allergens.

Planning and tracking a baby’s food journey

Parents can follow a guided introduction to a baby’s first 100 foods, with suggested meals and recipes. The app also includes more than 300 ideas for baby-led-weaning meals, baby recipes, toddler recipes, and family meals, including options focused on iron-rich foods and quick breakfasts.

• Log foods your baby has tried and mark favourites.
• Keep a list of foods to try later.
• Record reactions or sensitivities for reference with doctors and caregivers.
