Good nutrition in the early years lays the foundation for a lifetime of healthy habits.
Why we started
Baby food needed a better way
Olivia Bates saw that many baby foods were not giving babies the nutrition, texture, and ingredient quality they need when starting solids.
- Many baby foods don’t meet nutrition standards
- Often high in sugar and low in nutrient density
- Marketing claims can make products sound healthier than they are
Our Philosophy
Real food, designed for real development
Paediatric dietitian-designed purees made from real Aussie ingredients.
- Made with 100% Aussie fruit, vegetables, and protein
- Designed by a paediatric dietitian
- No added sugar or preservatives
- Age-appropriate textures for feeding development
- Blast frozen to lock in freshness and nutrients
I wanted to give mums a simpler way to start solids, with a pack designed especially for bubs and made from nothing but 100% Aussie produce.
OUR SIGNATURE
A safer way to introduce allergens
Awarded 2024 Food & Beverage Product of the Year in baby nutrition
Starting solids can feel overwhelming, especially when it comes to introducing allergens. That’s why we created our allergen introduction kit, to give you peace of mind at every step.
Inside you’ll find 14 key allergens, including all 9 tree nuts, carefully prepared in safe, baby-friendly formats. With our simple guide, you can introduce each food gently, one at a time, knowing you’re helping your little one build confidence with new tastes while you stay relaxed and supported.
Because nourishing your bub should feel joyful, not stressful.

It is recommended to give age-appropriate allergenic foods along with complementary foods from about 6 months. This recommendation is in line with Australian recommendations from the Australian Society of Clinical Immunology and Allergy (ASCIA).
Early exposure refers to the introduction of potential food allergens, at around 6 months (not before 4 months) of age when introducing solid foods.
It is now widely accepted, that early food introduction has a role in the prevention of food allergy, especially in higher-risk infants. This is thanks to the results of the Learning Early About Peanut (LEAP) study which was the first randomized controlled trial to demonstrate a significant (81%) relative risk reduction in the development of peanut early with early (aged 4-11 months) versus delayed (aged 5 years) peanut introduction.
Allergic reactions usually take place within minutes, up to 2 hours after a food is ingested.
Allergic reactions are considered either mild to moderate or severe (anaphylaxis). A mild to
moderate reaction may include hives or welts, vomiting, significant changes in wellbeing or
swelling of the lips, eyes or face.
A more severe reaction, known as anaphylaxis, may involve wheezing or persistent cough,
difficulty breathing, swelling of the tongue, swelling in throat, change in voice or cry and/or
pale and floppy/collapsing.
If you notice any of the above signs that suggest your child may be having an allergic reaction, stop feeding the food immediately and seek medical attention. If they are showing
signs of a mild reaction, continue to monitor for signs of a severe reaction. You may wish to take your child into the doctor immediately.
If your child is having a severe reaction, lay them flat in your arms. DO NOT allow them to walk or stand upright. Call 911 immediately.
