Weaning Consultation Call - Am I Doing This Right?

Yes! Since the earliest days of Mamamade, we've worked so hard to offer families a wide range of meals that would suit the full spectrum of preferences and dietary requirements.

Today, our meals are made in a dedicated facility that is completely free from milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, fish, shellfish, and soya.

Please be aware that we have introduced gluten into a select number of our toddler meals to offer parents more choice. Our kitchen currently handles a spice mix that contains mustard - this spice mix is only used in our Veggie Millet Bites. We also use celery in some of our meals. Although our chefs take great care when preparing all of our meals, we don't have separate areas in our kitchen, so there is still a small risk of cross-contamination with these allergens.

Find out more about our gluten inclusion here.

We are updating all Mamamade packaging to reflect the above, however, if you have a meal with old packaging, please rest assured that our meals have always been produced in a facility that is free from the allergens listed above.

Our fully flexible subscriptions (yes, you really can cancel whenever!) offer exclusive access to our weaning coach - a 1:1 call where you can ask all the questions you have about baby and child feeding. Plus free DPD delivery every time :)

Our meals stay fresh in your freezer for up to 4 months. By flash-freezing all meals, we're able to keep your food fresh, safe and nutrient-dense.

Once cooked, they can be refrigerated and heated again once in 24 hours.

With our 40 flavours using 80+ ingredients, we encourage you to work your way through our entire menu!

You'll be able to pick new bundles each time via Your Account section.

All changes must be made before 48 hours ahead of your delivery day. After this time your order is already in process and cannot be changed. 

You can also build a custom box - just navigate to 'build a box' under 'SHOP'

We know every baby is ready for different textures at different times, so these are simply guidelines - to make it easier for you to decide what's right for your child.

All of our meals are suitable from 6 months, and offering your baby a later stage meal is not unsafe for them if your child doesn't struggle with the texture.

Stage 1: Smooth single and multi-ingredient purees. These are great for little ones just getting started with solids (4+ months)

Stage 2: Textured mixes designed to be pureed, mashed or left whole (6+ months)

Stage 3: Chunkier, more complex mixes designed to be pureed, mashed or left whole (7+ months)

Finger Foods: Nutrient-dense bites and sticks (7+ months) 

Stage 4/Toddler: Meals that have been designed for babies 12 months and older.

Our meals are delivered in temperature-controlled boxes. We use liners made of denim offcuts and keep everything frozen with dry ice.  Our insulation is designed to keep your food frozen for up to 30 hours in transit, so don't worry if you're not at home to receive your box.

Once it arrives, you can return, compost or recycle all of our materials — all of our packaging is widely accepted by councils across the country.

We use dry ice, which evaporates en route - so don't be concerned if the pouches seem empty!

Babies aren't going to like everything you give them, and that's totally normal (and totally frustrating!). In fact, it can take up to 20 tries of something before a baby learns a new taste.

Mamamade has the most variety of any baby food delivery service, and our chefs are constantly working to release more.

So if there's something your baby truly doesn't like, we can change it up whilst keeping things interesting for both of you! For more tips on introducing new flavours, be sure to check out our blog
