Meal Planning for New Parents

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.

I really appreciated the balanced approach of this class. Often, information sources lean toward when baby feeding approach while being overly dismissive of the other. This class presented the philosophy and basics of each in a fair way, with lots of practical information. The handouts are well designed and helpful as well!

I’d appreciate written/downloadable component with sample recipes and ideas

This class is fantastic!  With the current environment, I'm not able to go to the grocery store that often or go out to eat, so I've been having to meal plan.  This class was just what I needed to get started.  I will definitely recommend this to all my new parent friends!
