Your Baby Is Growing Fast. Their Nutrition Needs to Keep Up.
6 to 24 Months: The Most Dynamic Developmental Phase in Infants
At six months, babies begin tasting, reaching, crawling, and eventually standing. Their brain is forming connections at a speed that will never be repeated. Their gut is maturing. Their immune system is being stress-tested daily.
And while solid foods begin to enter the picture at this stage, formula still supplies the majority of their critical nutrition — particularly for brain development, immune function, and gut health.
This is not the time to downgrade their formula. This is the time to step it up.
Staart Prime Stages 2–3–4 is formulated specifically for this dynamic 6–24 month window — continuing the nutritional philosophy of Stage 1, now calibrated to the growing energy demands and developmental requirements of an increasingly active baby.
Formulated for a Baby Who Is No Longer a Newborn — But Still Needs the Best.
Advanced Protein Support
At 6 months, your baby's protein needs evolve alongside their increased activity levels and accelerating growth.
Staart Prime Stages 2–3–4 delivers a carefully calibrated protein profile that supports muscle development, organ maturation, and the continued growth trajectory your baby has been on since birth — without overloading an immature digestive system.
Continued Brain & Vision Development
Brain development does not pause at 6 months. In fact, some of the most critical phases of synaptic connection formation and visual pathway maturation happen in the second half of the first year. Staart Prime Stages 2–3–4 continues to deliver:
- DHA + ARA for brain architecture and visual development
- Nucleotides supporting immune system maturation and gut wall development
- Vitamin A for sustained visual pigment formation and brain cell growth regulation
- Taurine & L-Carnitine for energy metabolism and continued neurological support
Gut Health Through the Transition
The introduction of solid foods at 6 months creates a significant shift in the gut microbiome. As new foods arrive, the beneficial bacteria in your baby's gut need active support to maintain balance. Staart Prime's GOS:FOS prebiotic system continues to nourish Bifidobacteria and Lactobacilli — keeping the microbiome stable and resilient through this critical dietary transition.
Right Energy for an Active Baby
A 6–24 month baby is increasingly active — more alert, more mobile, and burning more energy daily.
Staart Prime Stages 2–3–4 provides a balanced energy profile — with quality fats (including DHA and ARA) and carbohydrates — calibrated to fuel this activity while continuing to support healthy weight gain and body composition.
The Ingredients We Refuse to Use
What a formula chooses not to include tells you as much about its integrity as what it does.
Palm Olein Oil
Reduces calcium absorption; harder stools
Maltodextrin
High glycemic index sugar with no nutritional role
Fructose
Not suitable for infants. Puts the liver under stress.
High Fructose Corn Syrup
Linked to metabolic risk; zero nutritional role
Table Sugar
Unnecessary, habit-forming sweetness with metabolic consequences

Simple. Safe. Age-Appropriate.
Key Things to Know at This Stage:
Important: From 6 months, solid foods begin to complement formula. Staart Prime Stages 2–3–4 is designed to work alongside complementary feeding — not replace it. Always follow your paediatrician's guidance on introducing solids.
