  • Good quality food at great prices

    99 cents per pouch... So much better than other products, cheaper too.

    I love the taste of the Mamia baby food range, it is actually amazing and plus my baby loves it too. We tend to buy the Strawberry Rice Pudding, Chocolate Custard and Vanilla Custard, also the Banana & Mango, Apple, Pear & Cinnamon, Apple, Pear and Apple & Berries just because they are a little bit sweeter and great for a treat while out and about. When walking or at the park or in the car or just anywhere we don't have time to whip up something well its great we have these.

    Definitely recommend to everyone that requires them and always have them in stock in the house awaiting little fingers to gobble it up.

    We love Mamia food!

  • Yummy! Baby loved it

    We're doing baby led weaning so was hesitant to try a puree but my boy absolutely loved it. He kept opening his mouth and grunting for more and was all smiles after. It's good to know that if we go somewhere where there's nothing he can eat, we can always have a pouch of mamia in his bag and he'll love it. He especially loved the sweet potato, parsnip and sweet corn

  • An Absolute Winner in my house house

    My nearly 6 month old has tasted 4 of the samples and has had his mouth open in anticipation for the next bite for each pouch I have fed him. He has eaten the whole pouch at once and was one happy baby!!!

    I love the convenience of being able to put them in my nappy bag when Im out and about, without having to worry about food spilling or heating up etc.

    I like the range available, both sweet and savoury and the wholesome ingredients used in the range.

    After looking on ALDI's website I found that they are great value for money in comparison to the brands available in Woolies and Coles.

    I love that they are easy to open and dispense and they have even gotten me out of trouble when my 2 year old was chucking a tantrum at the shops, I just gave one to him and he happily sucked on it.

    Will definitely be buying these in the future, both as snacks for my toddlers and as a meal for my 6 month old!

  • Costly to Earth

    Ever wonder what your time is worth,

    Spending time to save the Earth.

    Made of money that we are not,

    But a little spent proves a bounties lot.

    For these wee children grow up quick,

    To find our Earth a rotting pit.

    And nothing grown and nothing sewn,

    Will ever make it to hearth or home.

    As roots are choked with plastic crap,

    Wet wipes, nappies, and gauzen wrap.

    Some small price demand be paid,

    To save those crops of future laid.

  • Cheaper and much better then others

    I was always hooked on other brands of baby food and once I had my 3rd child i thought i would try something different. I tried a number of brands before i tried Mamia but am well and truly converted to the Mamia brand. 10x cheaper then other brands, great range of flavours that my baby really enjoys. Convienient packaging. Would love bigger packages of the sweet foods range though

  • Baby too young to try

    My 5 month old son isn't on solids yet, so I can't comment on how I find the purees with him, however I gave one to my 4 year old son and he smashed it - Pumpkin, Sweetcorn and Broccoli one and he is not a fan of pumkin at all. So its a big thumbs up from mstr 4!

  • Great product

    My 5 month old has only recently started solid foods. She loved trying the vegetables, and I loved the fact that they were really smooth, perfect for first foods. The convenience of the pouches is great, love popping one in the nappy bag for on the go foods. They are quite cheap and many different varietys which is great for fussy kids. Very happy and will defiantly buy more.

  • Mamia baby food pouches

    My baby enjoyed the food in the pouches. It took a few tastes/sips to start getting a taste for it. He liked the custard and creamy porridge ones. it was also really handy to have the food in the pouches as we took a few with us on a some car trips, which made bub happy.

  • Great tasting and easy to use.

    I really enjoyed using the various Mamia products I received. The Vegetable puree went down well and baby really enjoyed the taste. The Food Breakfast and Desert was also well received and I really like that I could take these anywhere and give to baby when he was feeling hungry. They tasted great and looked fresh and wholesome. The fruit purees were also great, it tasted sweet and natural. I'm very impressed with the range and have since being given products to review, stocked up on these.

  • Great!

    Bub was sick when I did my last review, so was being a tad picky with her foods! Now she's on the mend and LOVING the Mamia foods we were sent! She gobbled down the breakfast sachet we had, and the dinner ones went down well too. She's still not a fan of the spinach and pea, but can't really blame her there ;).

    A great range of tasty, easy to use food pouches that are also value for money. Will definitely keep buying these!

  • Simple yet effective packaging

    My little one hasn't started on solids yet, so I can't honestly comment on whether he likes the taste or not. Stay tuned for that review ;)

    But, I'd just like to say that I find the packaging appealing and simple, and it looks like something I'd like to give my son. I'm usually not one to buy pre-packaged food for my baby, however this looks like a must have in the bag when out and about. I am looking forward to seeing how handy these will be when we go on our roadtrip from WA to VIC in December.

Mother’s instinct is a funny thing. At home, we trust it without question. But put us in a hospital setting with an unwell child, surrounded by doctors, nurses and monitors, and suddenly we start doubting ourselves.

What if I’m overreacting?
What if I’ve got it wrong?

So we stay quiet, even when we know something just isn’t right with our child. I’ve been there myself – when my usually ‘tough’ son was doubled over with stomach pain. I was told in the emergency department that it probably wasn’t his appendix. But I knew he wouldn’t have begged me to take him to hospital unless it was serious. Because I know him better than anyone. Turns out, it was appendicitis.

It’s a really common place for parents to land. You’re grateful for the care your child is getting, but at the same time, you feel this huge responsibility to speak up if something doesn’t feel right.

Here’s the thing though: that instinct you’re feeling? It matters more than you might think.

Why your gut feeling matters more than you realise

According to Paediatric Nurse Unit Manager, Canterbury Hospital, Leticia Jackson, parents bring something to the hospital that no test or machine ever could.

“Parents often say they ‘just know’ when something isn’t quite right with their child, and in a hospital, that gut feeling is incredibly valuable,” she explains.

Leticia Jackson, Paediatric Nurse Unit Manager, Canterbury Hospital

While medical teams rely on observations, tests and equipment, parents know the little details. The way your child usually smiles. How they react when they’re tired. What’s normal for them.

So when something feels “off”, even if everything looks okay on paper, it can actually be an early warning sign.

“When parents trust those instincts and speak up, this creates a powerful partnership that can sometimes catch a problem before it becomes an emergency,” Leticia says.

Worried about speaking up? You’re not alone

A lot of parents hesitate about advocating for their child.

You don’t want to come across as difficult. You don’t want to question the people caring for your child. And sometimes, you just don’t feel confident enough to push the issue.

Leticia gets it.

“It is completely understandable for parents to feel hesitant,” she says. “No one wants to be seen as difficult or to second-guess the hardworking people caring for their child.”

But here’s a helpful way to look at it: you’re not challenging the medical team, you’re helping them.

Parents are the constant. Staff change shifts, care for multiple patients, and rely on snapshots of information. You’re there the whole time, noticing the subtle changes.

“Our medical team doesn’t view a concerned parent as overreactive, but as a partner,” Leticia explains. “Your voice matters.”

Remember, we know our children better than anyone.

What to do if you’re worried: the Raise It process

If you’re in a NSW public hospital or health service and you’re worried about you or your child’s condition getting worse, there is a clear process you can follow called Raise It.

Raise It is designed to help patients, carers and family members get help fast if they’re worried about a change in their loved one’s condition.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Talk: Start by speaking to a nurse, midwife, doctor or health worker about your concerns.
  2. Ask: Still worried? Ask to speak to the nurse or midwife in charge and request a Clinical Review.
  3. Call: If you’re still concerned, you can escalate further using the Raise It process to get urgent attention from a senior health worker.

You don’t need medical knowledge. You don’t need to be certain. If you feel something isn’t right, or your child is getting worse, Raise It. You just need to speak up.

What should you actually look out for?

Sometimes it’s not one big, obvious sign. It can be small, subtle changes that just don’t sit right.

Things like:

  • Changes in breathing (fast, laboured or noisy)
  • Skin looking pale, mottled, or developing unusual rashes
  • Your child being unusually drowsy, floppy, or hard to wake
  • Confusion or behaviour that’s out of character
  • Pain that isn’t improving with treatment
  • Or simply that feeling that your child is getting worse

And sometimes, it’s just that gut feeling you can’t explain.

That’s enough.

“You are helping us, not bothering us”

If there’s one message Leticia wants parents to take away, it’s that you aren’t bothering the medical team, you’re helping them.

“In my years as a Nurse Unit Manager, I can say with absolute certainty that many critical changes in a child’s condition have been identified first by a parent. While our clinical staff are highly skilled at performing regular observations and interpreting data, parents are the only constant presence who truly know their child’s baseline behaviour, personality, and what is normal for them.

“I have seen numerous instances where a parent’s insistence that their child is “just not themselves” – despite vital signs appearing relatively stable – has prompted a deeper clinical review that uncovered everything from early signs of sepsis to a life-threatening respiratory crisis.”

The Raise It process exists because healthcare teams know how important parents are in keeping children safe.

“Speaking up doesn’t mean you don’t trust the team,” she says. “It means you’re partnering with us to make sure nothing gets missed.”

And if you’re still worried about being judged?

“Whether your concern turns out to be something or nothing, your instinct to raise it is always valid.”

  • I have learned many times to always listen to your gut and speak up when you don’t think something is right. This article was a great read, our kids are our world and if we don’t feel they are getting the right help, and we feel it, we need to speak up.

  • You should never second guess yourself when it comes to yours or your childs health- or anyones for that matter. Go with your thoughts. It is natural to want to protect a loved one especially when it comes to health situations, and the feeling you get when you think you didnt do enough to advocate or fight for them…it is not a kind or nice way to feel. Many people have ended up being heartbroken and picking up pieces for years because of feeling they didnt do enough.

    Reply

  • A very good and informative article. I have read so many stories about mums just knowing when things are not right and demanding second and third opinions until they got the right answer. Sometimes mums just know. It is our job as care takers of our families. Listen to your gut!

  • Years ago, I spoke up for my 14-year-old daughter, but my concerns weren’t fully listened to. I’ve always wished I had pushed harder. She was sent home without much testing, and two days later, she passed away.
    So, if you ever have concerns—no matter how minor—please speak up and keep advocating. Trust your instincts; they are there for a reason.

  • This is so important for parents to know how to raise it further if they don’t think their child is receiving the medical support they need! I know this article refers to the NSW system but other systems have similar procedures just with different names. I know in QLD it’s called Ryan’s Rule.

  • It’s so important to follow your gut instincts and express your concerns indeed. I have never hesitated to advocate for my children in various situations and I don’t care what other people think about it. Not all doctors and medical staff appreciate it when you question them, I’ve experienced that it may result in angry indignant responses.

  • How true this is! While nurses and doctors are the medical professionals doing their job on the daily, we know our children better than anyone and what is ‘normal’ for them. I would always speak up if I had noticed any changes in my child’s health and encourage other parents to do so too. No question is silly!

  • This really is such an important issue and a good topic to discuss with people, I am often surprised that people are worried about being judged. This is not something I care about; the priority is for the care and health of everyone is my family. Parents know their children and need to work with health professionals for the best outcomes for their children.

  • This is such an important issue to raise, and no one should ever feel ashamed, nervous or that they are being OTT for advocating for their kids, themselves or loves ones in hospital. In QLD we have Ryan’s Rule. A three step process where your concern will be escalated if they believe the patients condition isn’t improving or is worsening.

  • I have never been afraid to advocate for my children and partner and extended family and also friends. It is so important to listen and to trust intuition. When people have not listened, I have persevered and kept on with insisting on care and making sure they truly listened and took action.
