Welcome to the original & best evidence-based approach to introducing solids.

Conflicting advice is the source of your confusion. So you can quit the mum guilt. It’s not your fault.

There is something you can do that’ll make your experience infinitely better, though.

We suggest it’s time to stop Googling, hit that unfollow button, and start listening to a group of trusted professionals who use a clear, evidence-based approach to helping you feed your little one.

With over 50 years of combined experience, Baby Mealtimes is led by Dr Kyla Smith, a Paediatric Dietitian specialising in preventing and managing fussy eating. With her dream team of dietitians, and paediatric specialists, Baby Mealtimes will show you an evidence-based approach to starting solids.

What that means for you is that all our guides, video tutorials, food database, and methods are tried and tested. We don’t rely on anecdotes or old wives' tales, instead letting science lead the way.

Our team

will take your hand and walk you through exactly what to do and how to introduce solids successfully. We’ve done all the thinking for you.

Baby-Logo

The practical information

grows with your baby, from how much and how often to feed them, through to introducing allergens and advancing with texture (even if you’re terrified of them choking). We've got it all. We’ll take you right through to toddlerhood.

Baby-Logo

The galleries

give you access to hundreds of photos of finger foods, simple recipes and meal ideas, organised into specific skill levels, with clear instructions. Zero complicated steps here.

Welcome to your judgement-free, stress-free, evidence-based approach to help you start solids successfully.

When you’ve got access to a team of paediatric dietitians and feeding specialists, here’s what happens:

You make decisions easily. No overthinking. No confusion. You know exactly what you’re going to feed your baby every meal, every day, every week.

You stop crowd-sourcing help, instead going straight to the professionals. Your Instagram returns to stalking celebrities and the only thing in your browser is that beautiful blazer you've been eyeing off.

You know you’re doing right by your child. You aren’t just confidently feeding them nutritious meals in the moment.

It’s way more than that.

You’re setting them up for a lifetime of enjoyable eating, a healthy relationship with food, and fostering connections around the dinner table.

The result?

Paediatric Dietitian Dr Kyla Smith

I’m here to help you feed your family well, without the overwhelm. I've worked with babies and children for over 16 years in both my clinic and online programs. I have a PhD in childhood weight management and extensive experience working with restrictive eaters.

I'm also the first (and the best!) when it comes to online solids programs. Baby Mealtimes is like one of my babies, and I've refined it for years, to give you what you actually need.

I’m also a Mum of two girls, Elsie and Cleo, and I know the struggle today’s parents have with navigating changing guidelines, information overwhelm, unhelpful advice and societal expectations.
