I’d watch a fuuuuuull class video of Maiko teaching the basics and tips on how to learn to prep a week meal for a baby. That’s the most good looking baby food I’ve ever seen. Edit: I’m pregnant and it’s overwhelming but so inspiring that I’d love to learn how to do it.
Maiko, you're inspiring. Making natural baby food is such a labor of love. Introducing different foods to him is really interesting to watch. Most babies I've been around would never eat any of those vegetables! He's definitely a very fortunate baby!
OMG you can literally see Maikos determination here there are so many different variety sets of meals for Wolfy. With his Dad filming his progress it’s such a wholesome family I can’t even ....it’s too cute
Little Wolf is such a lucky boy who gets not only lots of nutritions but also his parents' full of love😊💕I'm so impressed with Maiko-san's hard work to prepare for so many kinds of dishes😍✨
@@Omegax_x1, this video was filmed before that five-month-old baby life video so I guess he changed after he filmed this video because from that five-month-old baby video it seems like he was a pretty good husband.
Miko needs a baby food channel. She’s so creative and the baby food looks so pretty. It looks like designer baby food. Wolfe is so lucky. Congrats Paolo on your beautiful family. 😄
Maiko’s mom bear pride in this video is soooo wholesome!! It’s amazing :) good on you Maiko! Feed Wolfy all those nutrients I’m sure he will grow up to be a strong healthy boy! You’re awesome Maiko!!
I'm from Germany. We usually start with babyfood at around 6 months. At the beginning, we either feed something like parsnip or carrot puree or we do BLW and let them decide, what they want to eat (for example softly boiled vegetables or some bread). But it's uncommon to feed things like cheese before they reach their first birthday.
Same in The Netherlands. First some vegetables, than fruits. Later on bread and potatoes. Cheese somewhere between 10 and 18 months and in very small amounts because it contains a lot of salt.
Hello Maiko and Paolo! I'm from India. My mom told me these things.....I was fed on rice and rasam, a lentil based soup and shit ton of veggies and different types of spinach every single day! Usually for in between meals i was given yoghurt with brown sugar or mushed fruits with cerlac! I was told that I was weaned off breast milk very early (at 4 months) so I was a formula baby.... Also from age 1 to 5 I was fed hard boiled eggs every day! Obviously Indians start feeding food with spices from 8-10 months old!
@@gedrgesfsdfwe4046 but it's relevant to the video and offers a different perspective regarding what people from different countries were fed as babies?
Google anti biotics in chicken in japan and you’ll see it for yourself. Also big portion of meat in japan is actually shipped from countries like the US
U.S. mama here! Love your channel and most recently your baby themed content. Maiko’s baby food prep is impressive. Our newest eats similarly in terms of variety as she will sample what the family is having just smaller portions. Veggies, rice, chicken, meats, potatoes etc. Also, it was so cute when Maiko said she was planning on being “lazy in a good way” with his food prep and ended up surpassing her own expectations of herself. Beautiful. Well done mama! 💪🏻
Can you do a video of your wife showing the actual steps of doing these baby food please? Like how do you make the veg such wet purée, do you add water or? And do you add any seasoning into the porridge etc? So many details that would help many moms out there!🙏
In portugal,vegetable soap with fish or meat , breakfeast milk with Cerelac( is a type of flour for babies), snacks yogurt with banana and biscut Maria smash and with i little o4ange juice.
Maiko going o f f on the baby food! Wolfy will definitely grow up nice and strong. This is hands down one of the best baby meals I've seen so far. Great job u guys!
Wow, I honestly never seen that much of preparation for baby food. I am totally impressed! Kudos to Maiko! In Germany we don´t feed cheese to babies. At least I never heard it haha. For breakfast kids his age normaly get rice/simolina/fruit or 7-corn mash with fruits. For meal you can either cook yourself - like mashed potatoes with all kinds of vegetables, rice or tiny noodles with sauce and little pieces of meat, or you can also buy those jars. At night it´s back to simolina or whatever mash with fruit.
I’m from phlippines we feed our. Six months baby boil egg veggie like boil broccoli boil eggs fish fruits like ripe mango water melon steam rice with soup a lot of suop
Maiko does so much prep and makes it look so pretty. I feed my kids mostly jarred foods. Sometimes, they ate what we ate. Sometimes, we played "baby bird" and pre-chewed some foods.
Your son looks so joyful. In 2019, we came to Tokyo with our 9 month and she did exceptionally well. The 9-10 hour flight was surprisingly very easy for her and she slept most of the way. The meals that Maiko is making looks very good. Looks like some of the stuff my wife makes. One difference was we fed her one foot for 1-2 days to see if there were any allergies first then combined more spices and ingredients in. This way you don’t have so many to eliminated for allergies. Great job!
Wolfy looks so beautiful and healthy! You guy should be so proud of all your amazing work as parents! Just think back to when you were worried about his skin and were figuring out the rhythm of parenting. You two look like you’ve really found your flow and wolfy is so lucky to have you as parents. Bravo!
This is definitely something I want to do for my future kids and make sure they are getting everything they need in a natural, healthy way without all of the processed, fake stuff. Great job with everything Mama Maiko !!!
So I am from the US and my husband is from Brazil. We have an 8 month old who is a food fiend. I didn't want to do spoon fed blended food, so we jumped right in to regular foods she feeds herself. I did start with the softer, easier foods and worked my way up to harder foods though. Her first meal was peeled, steamed bell pepper, banana, kiwi, and whole wheat toast w/ a little peanut butter. Now she eats what we eat just without salt or sugar. My husband tells me its normal for babies to have rice and beans in Brazil, so the idea of feeding her other regular food wasn't too crazy for him. He also says they eat a lot of this toasted wheat and milk porridge. You get it in a tin and it looks like baby oatmeal. Just add milk. We gave some to baby, but it is too high in sugar, so she can't really have it yet, but I think it tasted great.
I really admire Maiko‘s passion for cooking baby food! 😍 In Germany we usually start with mashed carrots and potatoes and gradually add some meat or fish and different kinds of vegetables one by one (lunch). As for dinner we usually start with porridge, after the lunch menu contains a certain variety of ingredients. However, store-bought baby food sold in mason jars is still pretty standard and as far as I know not too many people cook it freshly.
so cute! do you think you could make a video explaining the different 'phases' of eating a baby goes through? Maybe also a vid on what health/growth milestones Japan uses for babies?
Poor baby Paolo had to sit under the table and catch the scraps to eat! Wolfie's food does look pretty good! I might have to help him eat it. I think Maiko needs to share those recipes!
I am European. In my country cheese is also a dish for way later. We usually start with veggies. As for me I gave pumpkin first. Interesting video! Like those topics 😀
My mother is French and my dad is American!!! I ate a French baby meal called “petitis suisses” which is yogurt and it’s sometimes served with one bread or a cookie!!! I ate ratatouille sometimes since it was a soft food
Watching this made me appreciate how much time and effort my mum used to put into making my meals from scratch as a todler/child. I was born with a defect that was corrected only hours after entering the world (tracheoesophageal fistula) and had to be careful of possible choking when eating. Its amazing that Maiko is making all the meals from scratch. :3
I live in Belgium, I breastfed my baby for the first 6 months. Then introduced fruits, vegetables, potatoes, rice and meat but no mince. Anything that I could make into a puree. My daughter still drank exclusively breastmilk until I went back to work when she was 8 months old. From then on she drank formula when she wasn't with me. I still let her drink from me whenever she wants, which is mainly before bedtime and at night. Around 7 months she started to eat bread (with crusts) spread with pureed fruit or butter (non-lactose). Now she's 1 year old, she has soft fruits and vegetables in little pieces but her meat is still pureed with vegetables because she hasn't got any teeth yet. I don't know where you heard about babies getting cheese. This is not the case in my country. My baby might have a little bit of yoghurt but the rest of her food is non-dairy. I hope this answer is what you were looking for. I liked your video.
You two make me laugh your so cute 🥰 I am Australian/Italian in my family we started feeding the babies at 3 months old with porridge made out of bread,water,sugar and some oil and some rice porridge.As they get older we feed them what we ate some mashed the other was for them to get their hands in to it and not forgetting toast with vegemite .Even now if one of the kids have a baby we do the some thing,you guys do a lot of preparation for your little man and that’s fantastic it’s nice to see what Japanese baby eats.Love your beautiful family ♥️from🇦🇺
I did much the same for my children . Good nutrition is important at any age , but even more so for children , as they literally growing their bodies and brains . I only used organic free range foods for them ( as much as I was able , anyway) and did batch cooking exactly like Maiko does . Yes, it took a little time and effort it so worth it. ! I totally agree with Maiko , giving them a variety of foods also helps educate their palate , and gets them used to eating a wide variety of foods .
Please make a video on how to make Japanese baby food and it’s recipe !!! It looks so healthy and delicious. I’m expecting my baby boy in June and this will be so helpful! Thank you 🙏🏻
This video is so amazing, am an African mum in Japan and I need to give him japanese food so transitions well at daycare , and I don't even know where to start🤣 so this video kind of helped . But I still don't know the details of what am supposed to do 😅
Maiko is like a baby food top chef 👩🏼🍳. She could make a bunch of money in the U.S. selling that ice cube meal prep concept for busy parents. Like Paolo shared, I too was fed baby food from Gerber jars. However, there have been so many recalls on baby products (food included) throughout the U.S. and lawsuits recently that making your own baby's food is not only healthier, but safer.
Would maiko be interested in doing more videos on baby food meal prep. I want to introduce my baby to different kinds of flavors and honestly i never seen anyone in countries outside of america do this.
Austria here: baby boy started with mashed pumpkin, parsnip, carrot. Then after that we started with potatoes mixed in and fruit mashed for snacks. Then sometimes added meat. We also used to make more abd freeze, like you do. We also added rapeseed oil in his meals so that fat soluble vitamins can be absorbed. Eggs and cheese were added later, when he could eat a little better with his hands. He still loves cheese ;-) Wolfy is really lucky to have such a huge variety! looks great!
Mom does a wonderful job making Wolfe’s food. It was enjoyable to watch. My kids are all grown up but such a different way to feed your baby. My kids also didn’t like the baby food in the jar. By nine months they were eating what we ate. Beautiful family.
From Norway (in Europe). Here we start with oat porridge and veg/fruitbites. Any dairy (cheese/milk etc) from cow and rice is not used directly until baby is 1 year. That goes for any honey as well.
True, but we make the oat porrigde with some breast milk or baby formula, and a little bit of the regular food that adults eat but in mushed up form when around 10-12 months old without any seasoning. At least my family does that.
Such fantastic loving Mommy and Daddy . Baby Tiaga's meals are fantastic, Mommy is working very hard to make such healthy meals. Both of you are working together so well to give Wolfy the very best, and I think your both amazing parents. Wolfy is so happy, and absolutely the cutest little sweetheart😍🌟❤❤❤❤❤❤
I'm from Germany and as far as I know nobody feeds cheese early on. Its more like mashed veggies potatoes, carrots, fennel etc. and meat or for in between meals applesauce, mashed banana and bread like pretzels
(US) Hi! Our son is one year. We started what's called baby lead weaning when he was 6 months. This method basically says we feed him everything we eat(I tone down spice for him a bit if we're eating something spicy and I don't salt his portion). We skipped puree completely and it's really nice because we can easily order off restaurant menus for him when we go to patios to eat.
As a child I remember I REALLY loved broccoli. My most favourite meal as soon as I could eat soft solids was a beef and pasta stew/soup thing but I never got the recipe from my grandmother before she passed... I'm still a little mad at myself for not asking >
This baby is going to have a wonderful palette! I'd love to see Maiko do a baby food cooking video (and I don't even have kids 😅but I might want to cook a gourmet meal for my 9 month old nephew).
I'm on the states & we chose to do something called Baby Led Weaning at 6 months. So she basically eats what we eat, with some modifications. Like no salt, it's cut a certain way, maybe veggies are steamed a little softer... Part of this is that she feeds herself as well. There are some occasions that we help her by loading her spoon but then we hand it to her & she feeds herself. Another important thing for BLW is eating with her. We all eat together, that way she can see what we're doing and try to do it herself.
Thank you that we can be a small part of your family. Our daughter is now 4.5y old and we live in Switzerland. In europe, specialy in Switzerland ;-) we have many different variation of chees. But is is not the number one ingredient for a baby. I am so happy to see, that your meals are so different and various asorted, healthy an colorfull! I wish i can do that with the same effort like your wife! For breakfast we eat more like bread with butter and jam and cereals with milk or youghurt. Most people eat a warm lunch and a cold dinner unless with guests, then it is mostly warm dinner.
Here in the eastern United States, we started off with grain cereal for breakfast and simple fruits around 4 months old. After that, we began introducing single-ingredient veggie purees, then around 8 months introduced variations on whatever we were eating at the table. Our son has tried everything, but his staples are oat cereal, shredded cheese, all sorts of veggies, tofu, and fish.
We did baby led weaning and just cut food up to the appropriate size and shape. It’s really safe as long as you know to prepare food in forms they can manage. We started food at 5.5 months and the first thing she ate was a piece of broccoli.
The way Maiko prepared Wolfie’s food for a week was a WOW, so much effort, & Paolo’s taking a video of everything. A Healthy Wolfe is a Happy Wolfe. Enjoyed & like this Vlog❤️🙂😍🥰👍👏😘🥰
Hi, I have a 10 month old and we feed her purreed food pouches that are a mixed of Venables, fruit and whole grains. Those are for snacks, for her main meals she will eat what we eat, just chopped up super small. She will also have 3 to 4 formula bottles a day. I was so impressed you guys made your own baby food.

'I just can't wait to feed him the fried chicken' XD XD XD
Paolo is the best.
Paolo: Please consider adopting me. Your children eat well! :D I think Wolfy said that he wanted a nice oniichan.
This baby eats better than me! So healthy! What a beautiful baby - kudos to you both!
Is there first baby. Usually the first baby parents are extra attentive. Plus they make videos.
Great video so interesting 👍

Is it that good to feed carrots? Its the main reason why babies get carotenemia so often.
@@white_tulip2189 if you give just a little and not everyday is no problem. just to feel some new teast

I totally agree with Maiko , giving them a variety of foods also helps educate their palate , and gets them used to eating a wide variety of foods .
Wolfie is just so cute, I wish I was this imaginative when my boys were tiny, wolfie will surely grow strong and super healthy ❤❤❤❤❤
He's shooo cute 😍 Maiko-san is super patient and really works hard, Paolo is so supportive, I salute you both!
4:00 Oh no maiko is getting more powerful. She gained the ability of "Mother's Eye Roll"
Please make a video on how to make Japanese baby food and it’s recipe !!! It looks so healthy and delicious. I’m expecting my baby boy in June and this will be so helpful! Thank you 🙏🏻
"I can't wait to feed him fried chicken"
AHHA I died 😂
was looking for this comment LOL
haha
This video is so amazing, am an African mum in Japan and I need to give him japanese food so transitions well at daycare , and I don't even know where to start🤣 so this video kind of helped . But I still don't know the details of what am supposed to do 😅

Paolo and Maiko has never been as beautiful as they are now taking care of the fruit of their love. Wholesome
Please teach us how to prepare it! 🥰 I am not even pregnant, but this is sooooo inspiring!
Maiko is like a baby food top chef 👩🏼🍳. She could make a bunch of money in the U.S. selling that ice cube meal prep concept for busy parents. Like Paolo shared, I too was fed baby food from Gerber jars. However, there have been so many recalls on baby products (food included) throughout the U.S. and lawsuits recently that making your own baby's food is not only healthier, but safer.
Would maiko be interested in doing more videos on baby food meal prep. I want to introduce my baby to different kinds of flavors and honestly i never seen anyone in countries outside of america do this.
Hats off to maiko for doing all of these! Wolfie will grow up so healthy ❤️❤️❤️
Austria here: baby boy started with mashed pumpkin, parsnip, carrot. Then after that we started with potatoes mixed in and fruit mashed for snacks. Then sometimes added meat. We also used to make more abd freeze, like you do. We also added rapeseed oil in his meals so that fat soluble vitamins can be absorbed. Eggs and cheese were added later, when he could eat a little better with his hands. He still loves cheese ;-)
Wolfy is really lucky to have such a huge variety! looks great!
Maiko saying “sempai moms” was a everything I needed this morning 💖
Mom does a wonderful job making Wolfe’s food. It was enjoyable to watch. My kids are all grown up but such a different way to feed your baby. My kids also didn’t like the baby food in the jar. By nine months they were eating what we ate. Beautiful family.
Mother's silently do so much to make other peoples lives easier and other people might not even notice...
as do fathers..
@@Code0866 such a tone deaf statement. thats not the case for majority of families
From Norway (in Europe). Here we start with oat porridge and veg/fruitbites. Any dairy (cheese/milk etc) from cow and rice is not used directly until baby is 1 year. That goes for any honey as well.
True, but we make the oat porrigde with some breast milk or baby formula, and a little bit of the regular food that adults eat but in mushed up form when around 10-12 months old without any seasoning. At least my family does that.
I have never salivated over baby food as much as I do now. I want what Wolfie is having!
Such fantastic loving Mommy and Daddy . Baby Tiaga's meals are fantastic, Mommy is working very hard to make such healthy meals. Both of you are working together so well to give Wolfy the very best, and I think your both amazing parents. Wolfy is so happy, and absolutely the cutest little sweetheart😍🌟❤❤❤❤❤❤
You guys seriously need to do your own baby food line. Its absolutely incredible.xx
Yes, overnight me some of those cube meals.
I'm from Germany and as far as I know nobody feeds cheese early on.
Its more like mashed veggies potatoes, carrots, fennel etc. and meat or for in between meals applesauce, mashed banana and bread like pretzels
Wow, that was so cute, you have the best fed baby I've ever seen!
(US) Hi! Our son is one year. We started what's called baby lead weaning when he was 6 months. This method basically says we feed him everything we eat(I tone down spice for him a bit if we're eating something spicy and I don't salt his portion). We skipped puree completely and it's really nice because we can easily order off restaurant menus for him when we go to patios to eat.
As a child I remember I REALLY loved broccoli. My most favourite meal as soon as I could eat soft solids was a beef and pasta stew/soup thing but I never got the recipe from my grandmother before she passed... I'm still a little mad at myself for not asking >
I want to learn Maiko's organization technique! Everything looks so perfect and organized. Such a salve for my OCD!
This baby is going to have a wonderful palette! I'd love to see Maiko do a baby food cooking video (and I don't even have kids 😅but I might want to cook a gourmet meal for my 9 month old nephew).
I'm on the states & we chose to do something called Baby Led Weaning at 6 months. So she basically eats what we eat, with some modifications. Like no salt, it's cut a certain way, maybe veggies are steamed a little softer... Part of this is that she feeds herself as well. There are some occasions that we help her by loading her spoon but then we hand it to her & she feeds herself. Another important thing for BLW is eating with her. We all eat together, that way she can see what we're doing and try to do it herself.
I think that was the first time in my life I was actually envious of baby food lol
Thank you that we can be a small part of your family. Our daughter is now 4.5y old and we live in Switzerland. In europe, specialy in Switzerland ;-) we have many different variation of chees. But is is not the number one ingredient for a baby. I am so happy to see, that your meals are so different and various asorted, healthy an colorfull! I wish i can do that with the same effort like your wife! For breakfast we eat more like bread with butter and jam and cereals with milk or youghurt. Most people eat a warm lunch and a cold dinner unless with guests, then it is mostly warm dinner.
He is so adorable. In England its mostly just mushed up what everyone else was eating.
In Norway too, but without much salt and pepper. we also feed oat porridge when very young.
@@NordicFreyja yeah porridge. Apple sauce and yoghurt as well.
Canada too, but no salt and nothing spicy (not even pepper) or garlic
@@StephanieBacks yeah no spices
Here in the eastern United States, we started off with grain cereal for breakfast and simple fruits around 4 months old. After that, we began introducing single-ingredient veggie purees, then around 8 months introduced variations on whatever we were eating at the table. Our son has tried everything, but his staples are oat cereal, shredded cheese, all sorts of veggies, tofu, and fish.
As a baby i was told i was given grits, cream of wheat, mashed potatoes, and the skin of fried chicken lol...
😂
so the bad stuff basically
You guys are just awesome people and awesome parents! Sending you tons of love and support from France!
Meiko’s food prep is gourmet level💜
In our country india we feed baby steam rice with pluses along with clerified butter
We did baby led weaning and just cut food up to the appropriate size and shape. It’s really safe as long as you know to prepare food in forms they can manage. We started food at 5.5 months and the first thing she ate was a piece of broccoli.
The way Maiko prepared Wolfie’s food for a week was a WOW, so much effort, & Paolo’s taking a video of everything. A Healthy Wolfe is a Happy Wolfe.
Enjoyed & like this Vlog❤️🙂😍🥰👍👏😘🥰
Maiko is like hybrid geek of foodie + ocd + perfect mom. ❤️ perfectly matched with Paulo and Wolverine. GODSPEED 👍
wolfy is so chill...at least in the vids haha
Hi, I have a 10 month old and we feed her purreed food pouches that are a mixed of Venables, fruit and whole grains.
Those are for snacks, for her main meals she will eat what we eat, just chopped up super small. She will also have 3 to 4 formula bottles a day.
I was so impressed you guys made your own baby food.
