Authors Gill Rapley and Tracey Murkett start with an overview of what baby-led weaning is and why it appeals to so many parents (and babies). If parents are new to this approach, or need a quick reminder of what it entails, they’ll find a guide to getting started and what to expect in the early weeks. Included are the basics of a healthy diet, followed by some tips for supporting your baby’s developing skills, and the golden rules of BLW.

Finding time (and energy) for cooking can be a challenge with a new baby, so all the recipes are straightforward and quick to prepare. Some take only a few minutes, while others can be done in stages. A list of dishes that freeze well, helps parents create a store of healthy meals that just need defrosting and heating. Many are good for batch-cooking too, saving even more time on busy days. Providing healthy food to babies when you are out can also be tricky, so dishes and snacks to make in advance are listed, which are easy to carry without being too messy.
