“Rachel’s webinar was exactly what I needed as I waded through information about solids - especially contemplating spoon fed purées vs baby-led weaning. Based in facts and research, I got the information I needed in a completely non-judgmental way. The webinar provided resources, food ideas, nutritional information, safety tips, and more. In the end, I felt confident approaching solids as a mix of the two methods.”
Why take this Introduction To Solids online course from me?
Hi, I’m Rachel. Feeding expert, registered dietitian and mom of two littles. Over 5 years ago I was getting ready to start introducing solids to my daughter and I was bombarded by the amount of information available - not to mention how many people thought their way was the right way. As a pediatric dietitian who helped families feed their little ones as my profession, I knew there was a better way.
I started teaching my introduction to solids classes locally in San Diego, CA. I was able to provide parents and caregivers with guidance, strategies and tips to start feeding, using an evidence-based approach which includes the latest research, in a non-judgmental way. After teaching this class in-person for several years, I was asked by families outside of San Diego for feeding assistance - and those wanting to learn the information on their own schedule - this class was born.
There is no one right way to feed - but my course will help you find the way that’s right for you. This course provides a comprehensive overview to starting solids, and once you complete the course, you can schedule a 15 minute phone call with me, where we will answer any of your lingering, personal questions.
