Meet the founder
Hi, I’m Abby. I’m a paediatric nutritionist, mum of three and founder of Petite Meal Co.
Long before Petite Meal Co, I spent years helping parents navigate starting solids and understand what their babies actually need through Mum Bub Nutrition. And I kept coming up against the same problem. I could teach parents what to feed their babies, but I couldn’t point them towards ready-made baby food that genuinely reflected that advice.
I’d talk about the importance of iron, then see meals made predominantly from vegetables with only a token amount of meat. I’d teach parents about healthy fats for growth, brain development and the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins, yet so many meals contained very little. And I knew how much variety, flavour and progressing textures mattered, but struggled to find convenient options that brought all of those things together.
So I created what I wished I could recommend.

Every recipe starts with what babies actually need
Where is the iron coming from? Is there enough fat? What is each ingredient contributing? Are we offering different flavours and foods? How will a baby actually manage the texture?
We build our meals around those answers.
No token proteins. No filler ingredients. No designing food around what can sit on a shelf for years. Just thoughtfully made food for a period when little brains and bodies are growing incredibly quickly.
That’s why you’ll find meaningful amounts of meat, fish, liver, legumes and other nutrient-dense ingredients throughout our range, alongside healthy fats, herbs, spices and progressing textures.

Nutrition you don’t have to second guess
Because you already have enough to think about
Feeding a baby isn't just about knowing what they need. It’s planning it. Shopping for it. Cooking it. Portioning it. And then wondering whether you actually got it right. Are they getting enough iron? Is there enough fat? Is this soft enough? Am I offering enough variety? What am I feeding them tonight?
You could make all of this yourself. But you shouldn’t have to make all of it yourself to feel good about what you’re feeding your baby. That’s what Petite Meal Co is here for. I've already thought about the iron, fats, ingredients, flavour and texture. I've scrutinised the meals so you don't have to. So you can open your freezer, serve something you feel genuinely good about and get some of that time and headspace back.
