We're joined this week for a Q&A on weaning and feeding babies and toddlers with food writer, Nikki Duffy. Nikki's latest book, River Cottage Baby and Toddler Cookbook offers recipes which aim to encourage a healthy and happy relationship with food from the outset. The first chapter of the book looks at the first year and weaning and other chapters look at how to ensure that your children have a balanced diet, and how to deal with difficult mealtimes and fussy eaters.
Formerly Deputy Editor of Waitrose Food Illustrated, Nikki Duffy also wrote a weekly food column in the Guardian. She worked for three years as the River Cottage Food Editor and is now a freelance food writer. Send your questions to Nikki before the end of Sunday 15th May and you'll be entered into a draw to win one of five copies of River Cottage Baby and Toddler Cookbook. We'll link to her answers from this thread the following week.
