Hello there!
Hope you are all well? Thought I would write a blog post about how I have got myself organised to best cater for little Harry’s eating. If you’re a parent, you will know how stressful it can become when your wee one is crying looking fed and you’re flapping about trying to get bottles made/ food prepared! I think the key to avoiding this is preparation and organisation.
Firstly, I cleared a cupboard in the kitchen and dedicated it solely to Harry. I then bought some storage baskets to put his bits and pieces in. You can find the baskets here: http://www.lakeland.co.uk/23881/Small-Faux-Rattan-Storage-Basket
The bottom shelf has sterilised bottles on the left, baby rice and porridge in the middle and formula on the right. This formula is the opened one which I am currently using.
The middle shelf has a basket full of spoons, bowls and bibs. And another basket with food pouches for handiness when out and about. (Just a quick side note – become a friend to Ella’s Kitchen here for a cute little weaning starter pack: https://www.ellaskitchen.co.uk/become-a-friend/ )
The top shelf has spare formula; I would recommend keeping a spare tin or two to avoid panic if it runs out! And a basket with medical supplies, and cups.
I hope these simple organisation tips have been helpful! If you have any more I would love to hear them!
Hope you enjoy reading, as much as I enjoy writing!
Jill
