The feeding advice we'd tell every new parent 🙌


Hello Reader,


We hope you're soaking up a little sunshine wherever you are. ☀️

Summer has been wonderfully full over here. We've been squeezing in lots of backyard dinners, finding new ways to stay cool, and making homemade ice cream with our kids (equal parts fun and messy 😅).

Speaking of messy...

One of the biggest questions we hear from parents starting solids is:

"Am I doing this right?"

We just published a brand new blog post called Dos and Don'ts When Feeding Solids, where we walk through a few simple changes that can help make mealtimes more enjoyable AND support your baby's feeding journey.


Before we sign off, we'd love to hear from you.

Are you travelling this summer? Staying close to home? Trying any fun recipes with your little ones?

Just hit reply and let us know—we genuinely love hearing what's happening in your corner of the world.

In health and happiness,

We know... it's hard to believe when it feels like summer has just started!

If you're starting to think about lunch packing, we wanted to share a product we genuinely love. Over the years, we've tested more than 10 different lunch kits with our own kids, and we've finally found one we keep reaching for: Little K Co.

We love that their lunch kits are stainless steel, plastic-free, leakproof, and built to last—making them a great option for busy school mornings.

Hello friend! My kids (Jess here!) have never been the most adventurous eaters, but there are a few foods I relied on HEAVILY when they were toddlers, which allowed me to get creative and amp up their nutrition. Smoothies Popsicles Muffins I knew if I offered them anything in smoothie, popsicle, or muffin form there was a near 100% chance they'd eat it! Which is one of the reasons we decided to write a Smoothie and Pop E-book! We wanted to give you guys the tools that we've relied on...

Hello Reader, Confession time… I (Jess here!) just realized something that might make me sound like the ultimate dietitian mom… I’ve never actually bought my kids popsicles from the grocery store. Don’t get me wrong—they’ve definitely enjoyed plenty at birthday parties, friends’ houses, and after sports when the hero parent shows up with a cooler full. But at home? I’ve always loved making our own. Not because they have to be “perfect,” but because homemade popsicles are one of the easiest...
