A Personal Journey Turned Global Movement

After turning to scientific research, she discovered the BLW method—an approach commonly practiced outside India. Inspired by her success with the method, Riddhi pursued formal certifications and began sharing her insights on Instagram. Her relatable content and expertise quickly earned her a loyal following.
“I wanted to help other parents who were feeling the same confusion I felt,” says Riddhi. “BLW isn’t just about feeding—it’s about fostering a positive relationship with food, where both parents and children enjoy mealtimes.”
Courses and Coaching that Empower Parents
Through her courses and coaching, Riddhi has guided thousands of parents toward stress-free mealtimes. Parents consistently praise her blend of traditional and modern techniques, which respect both the child’s independence and the family’s cultural values.
One parent from the U.K. shares, “Riddhi’s course transformed our feeding experience. Now, our son enjoys his meals, and I no longer feel anxious about introducing new foods!”
Looking to the Future
Riddhi’s vision for Baby-Led Weaning India is to expand its resources, ensuring more families can experience joyful mealtimes. Upcoming plans include launching additional online courses, hosting in-person workshops, and offering personalized coaching sessions. She is also developing a comprehensive food guideline database by age group and a video resource library to make the BLW journey even more accessible.
