If there is one highlight of a baby's day, it's mealtime. At every age, it's a great moment of discovery!
Infant
From birth until around 4-6 months, mealtimes set the rhythm for your baby's day. Whether you breastfeed or bottle-feed, these are the first moments of bonding with your baby. At this age, there's no need for a high chair: your baby can't sit up yet and will eat comfortably in your arms. A bottle and a bib are all you need for these early moments. The most important thing is to listen and adapt to your baby's needs. Milk quantities will gradually increase, and midwives remain a valuable source of support to answer all your questions.
At what age should you start diversifying your child's diet?
Around 4-6 months of age, babies gradually start to develop this habit! It's best to be equipped with bibs with sleeves and other protective gear for baby's first spoonfuls! Some parents opt for "traditional" weaning (smooth purées), while others choose baby-led weaning (food offered in large pieces). When baby starts weaning, if they are not yet able to sit up properly, a bouncer seat can be a good solution while waiting for the high chair!
That's it, baby is ready for the high chair!
