New infant feeding videos available through ‘Nip allergies in the Bub’ initiative

The National Allergy Strategy has developed a new series of short videos to help parents feed their babies the common allergy causing foods, as part of the Nip allergies in the Bub allergy prevention program.

A major website update has also been undertaken to ensure the content is consistent with the latest food allergy prevention evidence-base and best-practice. ReadSpeaker has also been added to the website to allow for content to be read aloud and/or translated into more than 20 languages, boosting the reach and inclusivity of the information provided. 

One video for each of the four stages of feeding development have been produced, demonstrating how to prepare recipes taken from the Nip allergies in the Bub recipe booklet. One of the key recipes included in the first foods video is how to prepare a nut and seed mix, making sure the nuts and seeds are finely ground to prevent choking.

The videos are available to view here. The Nip allergies in the Bub recipe booklet has also been updated to include photos of the recipes that are featured in the videos.
