Mudgee ABA EARLY DAZE - Thurs 6th Feb 9:30 am - Starting Solids

ABA EARLY DAZE is is a free catch-up especially for expecting parents, those with newborns and young babies up to around 9 months, and their support people. Come and join us for a cuppa, chat about the topic of the day and get to know other families while the little ones play. Everyone is welcome- you don't need to be breastfeeding to come along.

Questions about starting solids? Come along and find out about developmental readiness, suitable foods, and appropriate quantities for your baby's age as you and your baby explore the wonderful world of family foods. Learn about different approaches to starting solid foods such as baby led weaning, how breastfeeds and/or bottle feeds fit in with it all, and figure out what will work best for your baby and your family to try first!

Meet up with other mums and bubs, and take the opportunity to ask any breastfeeding and baby related questions you may have - an ABA breastfeeding counsellor will be present. All queries are welcome regardless of the topic- positioning and attachment, breast and nipple care, mixed feeding, sleep, naps and night times, starting solids expressing and storing breastmilk, etc.

Morning tea will be provided. If you are having a fabulous morning and would like to bring a packet or plate to share, that is lovely, however if that's not how your morning is going, then just bring yourself and your little ones, there's always plenty to go around. 

PlAyBA social and playtime follows at 10:30 am and you're welcome to stay if you would like.

The Mudgee Uniting Community Garden and Uniting Church Hall is a family friendly space. You're welcome to park for our session in the church carpark. If you can't catch anyone's attention at the glass doors (to the left of the actual church building at the back of the carpark), please enter via the garden gate to the left of the tearoom- we keep the glass doors latched to keep toddlers inside, however the gate has a childsafe latch and you will be able to let yourself in!

Bookings are appreciated and help us get in touch with you quickly if there is a last minute change of plan, however you're welcome to turn up on the day if you haven't booked. If you or your little ones aren't well, please stay home and get well this time and we'll see you next week!
