Parent Proof Nutrition Launches Guided Baby Weaning Program to Support Parents Through Starting Solids
Dubai, United Arab Emirates, 13th Jan 2026– Parent Proof Nutrition has launched its Guided Baby Weaning Program, a one-to-one service designed to support parents through starting solids with clarity, confidence and practical support.
Baby weaning is often described as an exciting milestone, yet for many parents it becomes a source of stress. Conflicting advice, strong opinions online, and fear around choking or allergens leave parents unsure where to begin. Many find themselves repeatedly searching for answers to the same questions: how do I wean my baby, what foods should I start with, and whether baby led weaning or purées are the better option.
The Guided Baby Weaning Program was created to cut through that noise. It offers clear, evidence-based baby weaning advice that focuses on understanding rather than rules. The service is led by Georgia O’Neill, a certified child nutrition and brain development specialist and founder of Parent Proof Nutrition.
“Parents are not short on information,” says Georgia. “They’re short on clarity. Most know what they’re being told to do. They just don’t know why, or how to apply it to their own baby. That’s where confidence gets lost.”
Why starting solids feels overwhelming for so many parents
Starting solids is one of the first major feeding transitions a baby experiences. It lays the foundation for feeding skills, food acceptance and early nutrition. Despite its importance, many parents feel unprepared when the time arrives.
Public health guidance provides useful general recommendations, but it rarely answers the practical questions parents face day to day. How much food is enough? What if my baby gags? What if they refuse food? Am I introducing textures too fast or too slowly?
Social media often amplifies anxiety. Baby led weaning is presented as an all-or-nothing approach. Purées are sometimes portrayed as harmful. Parents feel pressure to get it right immediately, without room to learn or adjust.
This is where personalised baby weaning help becomes valuable. Parents need explanations that make sense, reassurance that normal behaviour is normal, and guidance that fits real family routines rather than idealised scenarios.
The questions parents are actually asking
The Guided Baby Weaning Program is built around the most common questions parents ask when starting solids. These questions are addressed directly and practically during the sessions.
Parents receive clear guidance on:
How do I know my baby is ready for solids?
Readiness is about development, not just age. Parents learn which signs matter and which concerns are often unnecessary.
What is better, baby led weaning or purées?
Rather than pushing a single method, parents are supported to understand both approaches and how they can work together safely.
What foods should I start with, and why?
Parents are guided through suitable first foods with clear reasoning around texture, nutrition and ease.
How do I introduce textures and reduce choking risk?
Texture progression is explained in a way that feels manageable, not intimidating.
What’s the difference between gagging and choking?
This distinction is one of the biggest sources of anxiety. Parents learn what is normal, what to expect, and how to respond calmly.
How can I introduce allergens safely?
Up-to-date guidance is shared so parents can introduce allergens with confidence rather than fear.
How much should my baby be eating?
Parents learn what is realistic during early baby weaning, how appetite fluctuates, and why comparison is rarely helpful.
Exactly what to do in week one of weaning
Parents leave with a clear plan for the first week, removing guesswork at the very start.
These questions reflect the most common searches parents make online, including “how do I wean my baby?” and “what should I do first when starting solids?”
A calmer approach to baby led weaning and purées
Many parents feel pressure to choose between baby led weaning and purées. The reality is that most families benefit from flexibility rather than rigid rules.
The Guided Baby Weaning Program supports parents in understanding how feeding skills develop and how different textures fit into that process. Parents learn how finger foods and spoon-fed foods can be introduced safely, when each makes sense, and how to respond to their baby’s cues.
This balanced approach helps remove guilt and allows parents to focus on what works for their baby rather than what looks right online.
Reducing fear around choking and allergens
Fear is one of the biggest barriers parents face when starting solids. Gagging is often mistaken for choking. Normal reactions are interpreted as danger. As a result, many parents delay textures or restrict foods unnecessarily.
The sessions focus on building understanding. Parents learn how the gag reflex works, why it is protective, and how choking risk is actually reduced through appropriate texture exposure rather than avoided altogether.
Allergen introduction is another area where outdated advice still circulates. Parents are supported to introduce allergens safely, confidently, and in line with current evidence. This clarity helps reduce anxiety and encourages a more relaxed feeding environment.
Understanding how much is “enough”
One of the most common concerns parents raise is how much their baby should be eating. Early intake is often small and inconsistent, which can feel worrying without context.
Parents learn what is normal during baby weaning, how milk feeds and solids work together, and why appetite varies so widely at this stage. This helps shift focus away from quantities and towards exposure, skill development and routine.
When parents understand what to expect, pressure at mealtimes reduces significantly.
Structured support with space to review
The Guided Baby Weaning Program includes two personalised sessions plus a follow-up. This structure allows parents to learn, apply what they’ve learned, and then review progress with professional support.
All sessions are delivered one on one with Georgia O’Neill, a Certified Child and Brain Development Nutritional Advisor. They take place online, so you can work around your own schedule and get advice from the comfort of your own home.
The follow-up session provides space to discuss challenges, ask questions, and adapt the approach as the baby grows. This ongoing support is particularly helpful for parents who feel unsure or who have already had a stressful start.
The service is suitable for parents preparing to start solids as well as those already weaning who want reassurance or clarity.
FREE First Foods Exposure Chart included
Parents who sign up receive a FREE First Foods Exposure Chart designed by Parent Proof Nutrition.
The chart includes an extensive range of first foods, including options many parents do not initially consider. Iron-rich foods are clearly highlighted, including both heme (animal) and non-heme (plant based) iron sources. Potential allergens are clearly marked to support safe introduction.
Each food includes multiple exposure tick boxes, encouraging repeated exposure rather than one-off attempts. This reflects evidence showing that acceptance often develops over time.
The chart is designed to be practical and easy to use, supporting everyday decision-making during starting solids rather than adding complexity.
Available in Dubai and internationally, with Tabby payments
The Guided Baby Weaning Program is available to families in Dubai and worldwide. It is particularly relevant for parents seeking baby weaning help Dubai, where access to personalised feeding support can be limited.
To make the service accessible, flexible payment options are available, including payment through Tabby.
