Our story

Little Dish was started with a belief that our children deserve to eat real food that's packed full of goodness - food they'll love and that will do them good. It's why we use healthy, nourishing ingredients to make delicious, natural recipes.

When our founder, Hillary, was expecting her first baby, she was shocked to find that food sold in the supermarkets for young children had a shelf life of up to two years. So Hillary created Little Dish; a range of fresh food just like families make in their own kitchens, using 100% natural ingredients and no additives or preservatives.

Working closely with a nutritionist, she ensured that each Little Dish meal was nutritionally balanced for little ones. Hillary's two sons, Monty and Ridley were the first Little Dish 'Chief Tasters', helping to make sure every recipe passed the taste test. Today 150 Tiny Tasters are the first to sample everything from the Little Dish kitchen.

To provide parents with the very latest nutrition advice, and ensure every recipe is nutritionally balanced for toddlers, we’re proud to be working with the brilliant Baby & Child Nutritionist, Charlotte Stirling-Reed.

Charlotte is Mum to Raffy (5yrs) and Ada (2 yrs) and is passionate about making it as easy as possible for parents to give their kids the healthiest start in life.

As parents we know that for all the nutrients packed inside each of our meals to do any good, it has to be delicious enough for your little ones to eat it up. Our panel of over 150 ‘Tiny Tasters’ taste and review all of our new recipes and if they don’t rate it highly enough, it doesn’t make the cut – simple as that!

Our small team is fully committed to our mission of using real food to help busy, hardworking parents raise healthier kids. We all play a different role but children play a big part in all of our lives.
