The problem with weaning

It's not just “what should I feed them?”

It's textures, allergens, nutrients, portions, variety, gagging, refusal, and whether you're doing enough. The kit takes the planning off you, not just the cooking.

1

“What do I give today?”

A clear sequence means you're not inventing a new plan every morning.

2

“Am I doing this properly?”

Expert-planned progression helps you introduce textures, allergens and variety with confidence.

3

“I don't want to batch-cook my way through this”

Fresh food arrives ready to serve, so weaning doesn't become another full-time job.

Purées and baby-led weaning

Stress-free texture progression

Most babies plateau on smooth purées, not because they can't handle more, but because nobody planned the next step. Our 5-week menu is mapped day by day to move your baby from first tastes to proper chunky meals.

Finger food

Grip, chew, confidence

Daily baby-led weaning finger foods, prepared age-appropriately to build jaw strength and self-feeding skills.

Purée

Nutrition and flavour

Nutrient-dense purées full of new flavours, with dietitian-planned progression towards lumpier textures.

Combined approach

The best of both

Reliable nutrition from purées, plus the chewing and oral-motor skills that finger foods build.

The weaning journey

A clear 5-week path from first tastes to proper food.

Each week builds carefully on the last, so you are not left wondering what to introduce next, how to progress textures, or whether your baby is getting enough variety.

Jo Lenz, V&Me dietitian

Planned with our dietitian Jo Lenz, so textures, allergens and variety are introduced in a sequence that makes sense.

Week 1 · Days 1–7 7 pairings

First Tastes

Single vegetables, pure and simple

We start with single vegetable purées so your baby can meet clear, simple flavours early. Each purée is paired with a matching finger food, so they can explore texture and self-feeding from day one.

First Allergen

Egg introduced with familiar foods

Week two introduces egg while keeping the rest of the meal familiar. This helps you move forward without having to work out the allergen sequence alone.

Why this matters: Allergens can feel intimidating. The kit gives you a clear sequence, so you know what is being introduced and when.

Protein & Texture

More substance, more texture

Proteins arrive this week, and textures begin to step up. Your baby starts encountering a wider range of flavours and learning that food can feel different, not just taste different.

Protein Egg continued Chunkier textures
Why this matters: Iron-rich foods become increasingly important around this stage, but parents often struggle to know how to introduce them in baby-friendly ways.

Questions parents ask us

The things you may be wondering before you start.

The full day-by-day menu is shared once your kit is confirmed. It covers key allergens, progresses textures intentionally and includes a different pairing every day.

The sequence is planned to introduce allergens clearly and gradually. If your baby has a known allergy or medical concern, contact us before ordering so we can advise what is possible.

That is normal. Weaning is exploration, not a clean-plate challenge. The kit gives repeated exposure to new tastes and textures so your baby can build confidence over time.

Please reach out before ordering. Standard requirements we can usually cater for include no dairy, no egg and halal, but we need to check your baby’s specific situation first.

We deliver using our own private fleet across London. Delivery timing depends on your address and route, and you will receive delivery information with your order.

Created by a mum

Hi, Mulu here 👋 (and the V in V&Me!)

I wanted an alternative to doing every step myself that still felt fresh, thoughtful and properly planned for a baby just starting solids.

This kit gives you the standard you'd want to create yourself, without letting weaning take over your life. Every menu is designed with our paediatric dietitian, so you're not relying on guesswork, internet lists or conflicting advice.

FAQ

Questions parents usually ask before starting

Is the 5-week course flexible around holidays? 🏖️

Yes. Because we deliver fresh twice a week, we can pause and resume your progress around holidays and trips away. Book your weaning start date, then send us your away dates and we'll create a personalised schedule for you.

When should I start?

The kit is designed for babies starting solids at around 5–6 months. Not sure your baby is ready? Check the readiness signs and speak to your health visitor or GP.

Is it baby-led weaning or purées?

Both: a purée progression and a daily finger food, so your baby practises texture, grip and self-feeding alongside spoon-fed tastes.

What if I've already started weaning?

Use code WEEK2 or WEEK3 to start the kit on week two or three of the course.
