When 2 decades back, my mom was still a babysitter. The parents already top up $ automatically eventhough my mom say baby didn't eat much. And after several months, they even brought fish and chicken over happily, telling my mom that $ is for the effort and they scare my mom will rugi. As my mom not only serving porridge, she even give the baby full bowl of mashed potato,carrot (from ABC soup cook with Kg. Chicken) as main meal, the spinach porridge is very greenish.. real nutrition put in and if you aware how much ikan bilis you need to blend into powder just to produce that bowl of porridge. Baby can't eat 1 whole chicken breast. But do you know, to make an aromatic sweet porridge, not surprise that you steam a whole chicken breast to get the liquid out to make porridge? No salt use at all. Unless you do mind that your baby sitter eat the tasteless and rough chicken meat after it squeeze out all the essence, or she should reserve it bk to the parents.. as the baby cannot swallow meat . So it depends on babysitter. If you don't trust your babysitter, send her meat and vege. Cook your own proper nutritional meal for your baby during weekend.

I recall last time I steam a whole fish fillet and minced it, then mix with soft porridge to feed my 1 year old boy. The boy can finish it. If really need to feed the precious 1 with real food.. is really not cheap.
