Delivered by experienced Registered Nutritionist, Aliya Porter RNutr. Aliya has worked with families on their baby food journey for almost 2 decades.
This course is three 90 minute sessions. Why so many? Because there is actually a lot to learn and I want to give you time to be able to practise what we talk about. I also want to give time for questions.
Delivered live over Zoom to make it as flexible around you as possible. The price of the course is also heavily subsidised - £50 for the whole course.

What have previous attendees said?
“Provides you with all information needed to confidently wean your baby” Sarah. Didsbury
“Very informative. Practical but strongly evidenced based” Mum, Manchester
Really informative, very encouraging. Easy to ask questions, very collaborative” Imelda, Stockport
“I highly recommend Aliya’s course. Very engaging and a much easier way to take in the information than reading websites and parenting forums, which tend to give slightly conflicting information. The other half and I both enjoyed the sessions, and I felt more confident with my decisions afterwards. My baby’s 12 months old now and we still refer back to her notes sometimes. I also liked the personalised approach that took into account the foods we liked.” Mum, Manchester
