Extremely helpful information, 📖especially for Dads.
I would be totally lost without Tiny Hood Classes.

Glad I watched this class before starting solids with my little guy! I had planned to just make my own purees and just spoon feed. I had no idea there were this many things to consider when it comes to safety and nutrition when getting started.
