Infant and Toddler Nutrition

Infant and toddler nutrition focuses on providing essential nutrients for growth and development during early childhood. For infants, breast milk or formula supplies all necessary nutrients in the first six months. As they grow, introducing a variety of healthy, age-appropriate foods supports physical growth, brain development, and immune health. Toddlers need balanced meals with fruits, vegetables, grains, proteins, and healthy fats, while keeping portion sizes suitable for their small stomachs. Proper nutrition during this stage helps establish lifelong healthy eating habits and supports overall development.
