Did you hear the news?! *Stonyfield YoBaby is the #1 pediatrician recommended brand for 6 month to 2 year olds among refrigerated yogurts (IMS Health ProVoice Survey, 12/01/15 -02/29/16)!
Say what?! That’s right! The number 1 yogurt for your beautiful babes. I have been using Stonyfield brand for years with my kids and now with my grandson. He will be 2 in November and absolutely loves his yogurt snack time! I wish I had a story to tell of how he wouldn’t eat a thing until Stonyfield, etc…but honestly, he is a good eater and has loved his yogurt since he started on solids! I even use it in smoothies for him. Plus, all Stonyfield yogurts are organic so I can feel good knowing they’re made without the use of toxic persistent pesticides, artificial hormones or GMOs. YoBaby has been available for over 16 years and continues to get better and better. That’s a generation of young people who got their start on Stonyfield YoBaby! Several flavors are available including, Plain, Vanilla, Blueberry/Apple, Banana/Mango and Peach/Pear. Emmet loves the Banana and Mango flavors!
The first time I tried YoBaby was with my youngest daughter. I was so excited to find a yogurt that was formulated for her little system. We were exclusively nursing when it became obvious she wanted to “eat” with us. I wasn’t worried about fruits and veggies, but her older sister loved yogurt and Xiola seemed to want that as well. I knew I didn’t want her having cow milk, so I did alot of research on giving her yogurt, mainly because I loved it and knew there are benefits to eating a good organic yogurt. Thanks to the live, active cultures that break down the lactose and protein, it’s much easier for babies to digest. YoBaby yogurt is naturally rich in calcium and fortified with vitamin D, two must-have nutrients for babies. And there’s no worry that yogurt would replace breast milk or formula in the diet. For these reasons, pediatricians give yogurt the green light for babies beginning at six months. That was good information! Since we were practicing child led weaning, it was a huge plus that it wouldn’t replace her main source of nutrition at that time. Both girls were nursed until they decided they were finished. We didn’t introduce solids into their diet until they seemed to want it. Our first daughter was a year old and Xiola was about 7 months. We let the girls feed themselves to the best of their ability. So yogurt time was also a time to explore the gooiness and sensations of the food itself. Yogurt art on the high chair tray is common in our home today as well. Ha! With Xiola, her yogurt journey began at around 8 months of age and she is now almost 11. And her love for it has only grown. Now we make smoothies, popsicles…we use it in baking and on granola. Pretty much any where we can add yogurt we do! And it’s always Stonyfield.
Right now, Stonyfield wants to help you get started with YoBaby by giving away a 3 months supply (coupns for Free yogurt will be sent)! All you need to do is comment on this post about what your favorite yogurt flavor is and I will pick a winner through random drawing! 3 months of YoBaby Happiness!

To Stonyfield’s knowledge, Stonyfield YoBaby yogurt is the only one currently making the claim in the U.S. that it is the #1 Pediatrician Recommended refrigerated yogurt for babies between 6 months to 2 years. It is anticipated that the new YoBaby yogurt packaging bearing the claim will be on the shelves in or about September 2016, but consumers may see a mix of packaging on the shelf for a brief period of time. Stonyfield has not had a similar survey or claim validation conducted for YoKids or YoTot products. Stonyfield is not making the above claim with regard to YoKids or YoTot.
