Good nutrition from birth to 3 years is essential for healthy growth, brain development, and lifelong wellness. Early childhood is the most critical stage to establish healthy eating habits for infants and toddlers. These guidelines provide trusted information on infant and toddler nutrition—including recommended foods, drinks, and feeding practices for children from newborn to 36 months. Parents and caregivers can explore these resources to learn how to support healthy growth and development in early childhood.
Good nutrition is essential for young children to grow healthy and strong. During early childhood, a baby’s nutritional needs change as they develop, and their nutrient requirements increase with age. Along with breast milk or infant formula, introducing solid foods helps meet these growing needs and supports overall healthy development.
Protein is a vital macronutrient that supports growth, repair, and all body functions. Since infants are born with an immature digestive system, they may have difficulty digesting large protein molecules. Too much protein can irritate the intestines, strain developing kidneys, and may even increase the risk of rapid weight gain and later obesity. That’s why it is crucial for babies to consume optimum levels of protein—not too little, not too much—during early childhood.
Vitamin D plays a key role in bone health and helps prevent rickets, a condition that causes weak and soft bones. While sunlight exposure does help the body produce vitamin D, it’s not always a reliable source. Factors such as skin tone, geographic location, season, and sunscreen use affect how much vitamin D a child can make from sunlight. Because of this, your child may need vitamin D from food sources or supplements. Talk to your child’s doctor to ensure they are getting enough vitamin D for healthy growth.
According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, most babies are ready for complementary foods—such as infant cereals, pureed fruits, vegetables, and small amounts of water—around 6 months of age. Introduction should begin when your baby shows signs of developmental readiness, while continuing breast milk or infant formula as the main source of nutrition.
Iron is essential for healthy brain development, red blood cell production, and preventing anemia. Babies are born with some iron stores, but these begin to run low around 6 months of age. That’s why iron-rich complementary foods—such as iron-fortified cereals, pureed meats, beans, and lentils—are recommended once solid feeding begins. Adequate iron intake supports learning, memory, and overall growth.
Calcium is essential for building strong bones and teeth during early growth. It also supports muscle function, nerve signaling, and heart health. Babies usually get enough calcium from breast milk or infant formula in the first year. After 12 months, calcium-rich foods—such as dairy products, fortified plant-based milks, tofu, and leafy greens—help toddlers meet their daily needs. Adequate calcium intake during the first three years lays the foundation for lifelong bone health.
