Infants

     For our infants, we offer formulas from Costco. However, parents can choose to bring their own.  We start feeding infants "solid" food as soon as parents feel their baby is ready. Typically, we try to introduce the first "solid" food at/around 4-months of age.  We usually introduce one new food at a time and will wait 3 days before moving on to the next new food. This will help us determine the cause of a bad reaction, if the baby had one.
