The birth of an iconic brand conquering the world

Henri Nestlé knew that: ‘It is not enough to make the product; you also have to get it known and approved by Doctors and the general public.’ So, he decided to put his name on his product, along with the bird and nest logo – creating the iconic brand we know today. His dedication and passion did not go unnoticed – Henri gained recognition and endorsement for his product from the medical community.

And it all began with Henri Nestlé’s mission to give babies a good foundation in life

Not all sugars are created equal and therefore not all sugars are bad. The main role of food is to provide energy and nutrients for growth and development.

This sample day was created by registered dieticians to help meet the nutrition goals for your 6 to 7 month old baby. Your child may eat more or less, so always follow his hunger and fullness cues.

Choose a spoon that is small and smooth-edged. You may find plastic or rubberised spoons easier to use.

A new texture, taken for the first time, may make your baby gag out of surprise. If she does, straddle her over your forearm, with her head lower than her body and supported on your thigh. Pat her firmly on the back with the heel of your hand and encourage her to cough until the food is dislodged. Talk soothingly, gently rub her back and she’ll be more able to swallow.
