NOURISH FROM THE START
Create sustainable holistic vibrant living practices for both mother + baby from conception, pregnancy, to birth + beyond...
Our mantra is to nourish both mind-body-spirit from a cellular level, to encourage an openness to try diverse things, and to promote preventative wellness from the beginning.
A HEALTHY BABY STARTS AT
THE GUT & DIGESTIVE FIRE.
Kale Me Baby believes in helping you create lifelong happy eaters who love trying new things...
Which is why we introduce your little one to their first 100 flavors and textures - in a way they not only enjoy eating, but they can also digest smoothly and thoroughly into their tissues.
We already know babies are sponges and now research has proven that the more colorful diversity they are exposed to in their first two years of life, the more open and resilient they will be in both mindset and immunity.
Therefore, we have created a systematic approach to childhood digestive development where each core ingredient, pairing, and preparation method benefits a nutritional stage and growth milestone for your little one.
Take the guesswork out of what and how to nourish your child by incorporating age-old wisdom and nutrients for your baby and toddler's gut health, bone health, immunity, and brain development in a way that is easy for the entire family.
VARIETY IS THE SPICE OF LIFE
Kale Me Baby meals incorporate easy-to-digest, nutrient dense nourishment paired with baby-friendly spices to boost absorption and assimilation of minerals and to elevate the flavor profile + variety, not the heat.
GLOBAL FLAVORS + HOLISTIC WISDOM
PURITY + POTENCY
SAVE TIME WITH NO PREP!
Our meals are inspired by Global cuisine around the world due to its balance of the 6 Tastes: Sweet, Sour, Salty, Pungent, Bitter, Astringent.
In developing years, babies + toddlers should favor building foods which nourish the body deeply to strengthen the bones, brain, immunity, tissues at the core.
We always keep it real and as close to the natural plant source as possible.
Our organic farm-to-table sourcing uses sustainable practices from the origin, as we believe in the energy behind the nourishment we put in our bodies.

A HOLISTIC PERSPECTIVE:
DID YOU KNOW?
Vibrant vitality begins before conception. Radiant mother = Radiant child.
It is not just about eating organic, fresh foods - but rather, it's how we absorb and assimilate the nutrients of these foods into our cells through our Digestive Fire (Metabolism) that truly creates lifelong health.
The lifestyle practices we choose during these crucial times pre + post pregnancy will set the stage for the health, immunity, and strength of a child for the rest of their lives.
We have seven layers of bodily tissue which must be nourished and detoxified regularly.
Extra attention must be paid before the pregnancy, during the pregnancy, and after birth for both mother + child to recover, replenish, and build a strong body for life.
Combining Ancient Wisdom and Holistic Practices that are now backed by science -- Allows us to reap the benefits of our intentional efforts for many generations.
Kale Me Baby aims to educate and empower families before a child is even born - So they can have an experienced step-by-step guide of what to do, what to eat, during each month of pregnancy, and each phase of childhood development for optimal health and vibrancy.

COMPATIBLE WITH
Baby-Led Weaning
PUREE OR CHUNKY - YOU DECIDE.
Baby-led weaning is the most natural, traditional approach to feeding little ones. Humans and babies were thriving on real, fresh whole foods for generations and only recently due to industrialization and in the 1920s was "baby-food" as we know it today invented, often shelf-life stable, processed, and without any LIVING Life force energy found in recently harvested foods in nature. Essentially, most conventional products are empty "calories" devoid of the real nutrients as they are frozen or processed. Kale Me Baby products are always fresh, straight from the source, and full of alive nutrients that your baby can gently process with their young digestive systems.
At Kale Me Baby, we believe our bodies have an innate intelligence, and babies are born to eat - most babies can feed themselves soft finger foods that are easily digestible at 6 months old, sometimes a bit earlier.
Researching what cultures around the world give their children, it is easy to see that the babies are eating exactly what their parents are eating - only milder, and more suited for their digestion. Therefore, Kale Me Baby aims to do the same.
Instead of the parent choosing how much the baby eats, it is important to listen to the natural intelligence of the baby. Research suggests that if the baby has the ability to choose how much they eat - depending on its color, texture, variety, environmental ambiance - it fosters their mental cognition, motor skills, chewing abilities, and fosters their independence.
By allowing the babies to choose, they can become more in-tuned with their own bodies and needs, as well as their ability to discern when they are full + satiated, decreasing any chance of having a picky eater with malnourishment later in life.
With baby-led weaning, the baby is in charge of their own nourishment from day one of starting solids!
Whether you choose baby-led-weaning or not (or a combo of the two), we support your decision and our products cater to both needs.
Kale Me Baby is compatible with both feeding styles as our meals are both pureed and "mashy" enough to go utensil free, should you choose the natural way!
WHEN TO START KALE ME BABY
We understand that some babies develop as early as 4 months of age and some may be ready later. Therefore, we offer both purees and textured, chunky finger foods (still extra soft, steamed, sautéed for easy digestion - no teeth needed!).
Kale Me Baby recommends going by your child's development and "readiness cues" to determine whether your child is ready for purees or solids.
Your little one may be ready for Kale Me Baby when they can:
2.
Bring their hands to their mouth.
1.
Sit up independently and have complete head and neck control.
3.
Lean forward in the highchair and show interest in their food.
What about CHOKING & GAGGING?
Current research shows that babies who are started on solids with finger foods (or “baby-led weaning”) are no more likely to choke on food than babies who are spoon-fed. It is our strong opinion that babies who learn to self-feed a variety of textures early on become more skilled eaters and are less likely to accidentally choke or struggle with food as they grow older and begin to eat more challenging foods.
