Starting solids and wondering if it will finally help your baby sleep longer?
If you've found yourself Googling:
"Will solids help my baby sleep through?"
"Am I starting too early?"
"How much should they actually be eating?"
"Do I need to drop a milk feed?"
I've been there too π
Starting solids can feel exciting, but also surprisingly overwhelming. Suddenly you're hearing about allergens, iron-rich foods, routines, milk feeds, and conflicting advice about sleep.
As a paediatric nurse, sleep consultant, and mum of two, even I underestimated how important this stage could be. I used to believe "food before one is just for fun" until I learned firsthand how much nutrition, feeding, and sleep can overlap.
I've made this free guide to help parents better understand how solids and sleep work together - not just from a sleep perspective, and not just from a health perspective... but both.
Inside the guide, I cover:
β When and how to start solids
β Iron-rich foods and why they matter
β Common allergens and tracking ideas
β How nutrition may influence overnight sleep
β Things that can accidentally disrupt sleep
β Sleep & feed tracking tools
β When personalised support may help
This isn't a rigid feeding schedule. Not even a sleep schedule. Just evidence-based, realistic support that I wish I had when I was starting solids with my littlies.
Best for:
β’ Babies around 4β12 months
β’ Families preparing to start solids
β’ Babies waking frequently overnight
β’ Parents confused by conflicting feeding advice
β’ Families wanting to support sleep alongside nutrition

Hi, I'm Dani,
Iβm a paediatric nurse, Mum of two, and certified infant & child sleep consultant with 10+ years of paediatric nursing experience.
After navigating significant sleep struggles with my own children, I understand just how exhausting and overwhelming sleep deprivation can feel... especially when youβre constantly bombarded with conflicting advice online.
My approach is realistic, evidence-based, and completely non-judgemental, because sleep support should never feel one-size-fits-all.
Every baby is different. Every family is different. And parents deserve support that actually considers real life.
Whether itβs through my free guides or personalised sleep support, I hope I can be a positive part of your parenting journey.
