Nurturing small tummies
With a strong history of science-based innovations, Nestlé Infant Cereals can play an important role in helping parents to ensure their babies’ needs are met.
At around 6 months of age, a variety of other foods can start being introduced to a baby’s diet, in addition to breast milk. Cereal-based foods are internationally recognised as being ideal for introducing solids and are readily accepted by babies. That’s why Nestlé has dedicated 150 years to making the highest quality baby foods.
Keeping Henri Nestlé’s passion alive
The revolutionary beginnings of Nestlé 150 years ago marked the start of a journey that’s still going strong, and we are more enthusiastic and dedicated than ever to keeping Henri Nestlé’s passion alive.
