A guide by a nurse & mom
Feeding your baby, made simple
Simple. Nourishing. Real life. — for growing littles.

Our approach
-
Progress over perfection
Three good bites is a win. So is a jar of store-bought purée on a hard day.
-
Whole foods, simply made
Real ingredients, cooked in one pot, from the same meal you are already making.
-
Non-toxic but realistic
The swaps that genuinely matter — and permission to skip the rest.
-
Never any mom-shaming
No judgement about bottles, purées, pouches, or how you got through today.
Eleven pages, no filler
What's inside the guide
Not a 90-page e-book you will never finish. Eleven pages you will actually use, built around the questions that come up between six months and the toddler years.
-
What This Guide Is
What you are getting and how to use it — so you can find the bit you need at 5pm without reading the whole thing first.
-
My Feeding Philosophy
Progress over perfection, whole foods, and non-toxic but realistic. The thinking behind every recommendation that follows.
-
Baby + Toddler Feeding Timeline
What to expect and what to offer at each stage — first tastes at 6–9 months, building texture and variety at 9–12, and eating with the family at 12+. Texture, meal frequency and foods to offer for each.
-
Sample Daily Schedules
Hour-by-hour example days for 6–9 months, 9–12 months and 12+ months, showing where milk feeds, naps and solid meals actually fall. A flexible framework, not a rulebook.
-
20 Easy Recipes
Five breakfasts, eight lunches and dinners, five snacks and two sides — in expandable cards with ingredients, method, what it makes, and swaps. Most freeze well and feed the whole table.
-
The Meal Prep System
How to batch, portion and freeze so that on the worst evening of the week there is already something good waiting.
-
Grocery Staples
The short list worth keeping on hand so a decent meal is always minutes away, organised to make the shop easier.
-
Non-Toxic Essentials
The plates, bowls, utensils and storage genuinely worth the money — and permission to skip the rest when the budget says no.
Who made this
I am a nurse. I still panicked at the high chair.
I have spent years explaining medication schedules to worried families without blinking. Then my own daughter hit twelve months, and I stood in my kitchen holding a sweet potato with genuinely no idea what to do with it.
Everything I found was either a forty-dollar course or a stranger on the internet telling me I had already ruined something. So I built the thing I actually needed — the clinical guidance I trusted, translated into what to put on the tray tonight.
That is what this is. Written for the parent doing their best at 5pm with one hand free.

Questions, answered
What ages is this baby feeding guide for?
It covers the 6-9 month, 9-12 month and 12+ month stages — what to offer, what textures to aim for, and how many meals a day, plus sample daily schedules for each. Most parents start using it when solids begin around six months and keep going well past the first birthday.
Is this a PDF I can print?
It is an instant digital download you can read on your phone, tablet or laptop, and print at home if you like a paper copy on the fridge. There is nothing to ship and nothing to wait for — the link is available the moment you check out.
Do I need special equipment or a baby food maker?
No. Every recipe in the guide works with a regular pot, a fork, a sheet pan and a blender you probably already own. There is a non-toxic gear section with the few things genuinely worth buying, but none of it is required to cook a single recipe.
Does this follow a particular feeding method?
It is not tied to one camp. The timeline moves from smooth purees and soft mashes through soft lumps and finger foods to family meals, so it works whether you spoon-feed, offer soft pieces, or do a mix — which is what most real families end up doing. It is a practical what-to-offer-when guide rather than a manifesto for one method.
What is your refund policy?
The guide is an instant download, so your file is available as soon as payment is confirmed. Like all instant downloads, it cannot be returned, exchanged or cancelled. If something does go wrong, though, please message me — if the file will not open or you have ended up with the wrong thing, I will make it right.
