Testimonials

  • “I made my money back in my very first workshop.”

    Allegra Gast, RD, IBCLC

  • “It’s so much information that I would never be able to put the time into finding it all, especially with working full-time and having a side business. I couldn’t have done it without you. You’re kind of the reason I have gone where I am.”

    Alexandra Turnbull, RD

  • “I’m really happy to say that I have that comprehensive workshop at my fingertips. It’s been really beneficial for my career, especially as a new mom, getting back into the workforce with my private practice.”

    Diana K Rice, RD

  • “I just wanted to say THANK YOU and tell you just how amazing these trainings are. I have learned SO much. I’ve been an RD for 17 years but there is so much still left to learn.”

    Melinda Lamarche, RD

  • “I thoroughly enjoy the online sessions and I can definitely say I learn more in your sessions than what I do from the mandatory continuing professional development trainings we do here in South Africa.”

Frequently Asked Questions

  • No basic pediatric nutrition knowledge is required. After watching the 20-hour training, you will be confident with your knowledge about starting solids, BLW and spoon-feeding. When you have questions afterwards, Jessica and other health professionals will be available to answer you quickly.

  • Yes, all the material is completely customizable. As long as you’re an active member of the Starting Solids Network, you are free to use the material however you want.

  • Unfortunately not. The only option is a full membership to the Starting Solids Network. This is to be confident with the content and get all the knowledge you need to teach workshops.

  • Members charge from 30 to 50 USD per participant for a 1 to 2 hour workshop. That means that with a minimum of 10 participants, you can easily make 400 USD. The sky is the limit as for the number of participants online so it can be much more. Workshops can be taught online or in-person.

  • The 2-hour presentation includes an amazing array of slides designed by a graphic artist. Clear and high-quality pictures are included in the slides, as well as close up videos of babies eating and demonstrating the gagging reflex. All the notes are included under each slide so members have an idea of what to say.
