About Baby-Led Weaning Workshop
Why I Started This Workshop
When I was introducing solids to my little one, Bhadra, I was clear - I didn’t want those endless spoon-chasing mealtimes. I wanted her to eat with joy, not stress. Discovering baby-led weaning made mealtimes actually fun, with so much mess and laughter. Now she eats on her own, and honestly, it’s made life easier.
What You’ll Get
This workshop is about helping you trust your instincts and your baby’s signals, so mealtime can be less of a struggle and more of a discovery. We’ll cover:
- How baby-led weaning works vs. traditional purées
- Signs your baby is ready for self-feeding
- The biggie: dealing with choking versus gagging in infants (it’s scary, but I’ll break it down so you feel ready)
- My go-to first foods for baby-led weaning - you’ll see stuff like besan chilla and wheat crepes, no complicated recipes
- What to do when things don’t go as planned (because they won’t always!)

Final Thought

My Story
Hi, I’m Aparna. Used to design buildings, now help women design their birth journeys. My own pregnancy flipped everything for me - contractions, fear, then boom, mindset shift. Yoga and Lamaze saved me, so I trained up and started sharing that magic. Over 2000 mamas later, still learning, still laughing with my daughter Bhadra. I’m not just a trainer, I’m a mom right in the thick of it with you.
