A TikTok trend. A 9-month-old. A head injury. Helmets aren’t the answer

A 9-month-old baby came in with a head injury after falling off a sofa. Her mum had been watching a TikTok showing how to teach babies to climb down safely.

She thought her baby could do it too.

But here’s the truth - kindly, and without judgement:

At 9 months, babies cannot be relied on to consistently assess risk or get themselves down safely.

Their development just isn’t there yet.

What worries me most about videos like this is the false sense of security they can create.

Because while learning through movement is important…
➡️ Babies still need close supervision
➡️ They are unpredictable
➡️ And falls from sofas are one of the most common injuries I see

And just to gently clear up another myth -
❌ Babies do NOT need “protective helmets” at home
✔️ What they need is safe environments and informed supervision

Since the beginning of time, babies have had bumps and tumbles as they grow and explore - it’s part of development.

But we can reduce risk without relying on social media advice.

Because the reality is:
👉 Anyone can post
👉 Anyone can recommend
👉 Not everything is safe or evidence-based

And when it comes to your baby…
💛 There is no substitute for trusted, professional guidance

If you’d like to feel calm, confident and prepared (instead of unsure or second-guessing)…

✨ My Ultimate Baby & Child First Aid Course (online) gives you clear, practical guidance you can trust
✨ And my in-person Baby & Child First Aid & Home Safety Workshop gives you hands-on confidence in a calm, supportive space

You don’t need to rely on TikTok.
You just need the right support 🤍

Eczema can make Weaning feel confusing…
Can early Weaning help eczema? But Weaning advice says around start 6 months.

Here’s the calm, evidence-based guidance I shared in my clinic today 👇
✔ Always check your baby is developmentally ready
✔ Make sure your babies eczema in well controlled if possible
✔Start with low-allergy foods first, some veg, coconut milk or cream, lentils
✔ Focus on establishing some (not rushing variety)
✔ Introduce allergens closer to 6 months
✔ Once allergens are introduced and tolerated, keep them in the diet regularly
✨For some babies with eczema or higher allergy risk,
there may be a benefit to introducing certain allergenic foods earlier -
but this should always be done with the right support and guidance.

Weaning doesn’t need to feel like guesswork or anxiety.
With the right plan, you can feel calm, confident…
and actually enjoy this stage 💛

If eczema, allergies or weaning worries are on your mind
my Weaning Without Worry 1:1 appointments(Studio or online) are here to support you.

Tales from A&E ⛑️ Fresh faced at the start of the shift 😆 It was a busy one - lots of head injuries 🤕 mainly from adventures outside 🌳 but some at home 🏠 - door frames (I remember that with my two!) and

Also after having seen a video on Tik Tok recommending ‘teaching’ 9 month old to safely get off the sofa 🛋️ 📱 A 9 months with a big bump on the forehead. The Mum had also brought a helmet for the baby to wear at home again from social media. This isn’t necessary

While we always want to prevent the big accidents, babies have had minor bumps to the head as they move through their developmental milestones since the beginning of time and you don’t need to spend money on one.

It’s so hard when the marketing can seem convincing. I had such a lovely chat with this Mum and explaining this reduced her stress levels. We chatted about how important it is to take a few minutes a day to take care of herself - your wellbeing is your babies wellbeing. She said her mum had said all of this too!

Please trust your instincts and your sources - e.g. seek advice from health professionals

Anyway it was a great shift!

“I came fior First Aid course…and left ready for Weaning.”

This happened again in my course this week.

Three lovely families came along with their babies - 10 months, 7 months and 4 months old — and although they came to learn first aid, their biggest questions were all about starting solids.

Their worries were so familiar:

• What if they gag?
• What if they choke?
• What about allergies?
• How do I know what foods are safe?

And honestly, this happens almost every time I teach First Aid.

Because the truth is…

First Aid and Weaning are inseparable.

Parents want to start solids feeling prepared, calm and confident, but when you're unsure about choking, gagging or allergies it can make every meal feel stressful.

That’s exactly why I’ve created different ways to support parents at every stage of weaning.

✨ First Aid for Weaning (Online Course)
Essential first aid knowledge so you feel prepared and confident before starting solids.
https://www.baby-steps.co.uk/first-aid-for-weaning

✨ Weaning Without Worry Workshop
Practical weaning guidance plus the key first aid skills to give you the best possible start to weaning.
https://www.baby-steps.co.uk/weaning

✨ Weaning Without Worry Clinic
1:1 support at any stage of weaning, where we unpick your individual concerns.
https://www.baby-steps.co.uk/weaning-without-worry-clinic

So often this comes down to the real-life challenges parents face - meal prep, food ideas, routines and day-to-day weaning struggles.

Together we:
• find practical solutions that work for your family
• iron out first aid worries
• reduce stress to create happy, healthy mealtimes

Because weaning shouldn’t feel overwhelming.

If you would like support with weaning or first aid…

Comment “WEANING” below and I will get in touch to help you find the best way I can support you.
