Purée or baby-led weaning is the question parents agonise over, and the trial evidence says it barely matters. Choking, allergen timing and what stays off the plate are the decisions that do — here is the map of all of them.

You decide what, when and where; your child decides whether and how much. Ellyn Satter's model, the validated evidence behind it, and the pressure loop it exists to break.

Start from a food your child already eats and move one sensory step at a time. How to build a chain — and why the evidence sits in repeated exposure rather than in the method itself.
Every child develops chewing and swallowing skills at their own pace. The preparation methods shown are general guidelines; you must always evaluate your individual child's ability before serving. By offering this food, you agree to the following:
