These tips or guidelines are in place to ensure that all group discussions focus purely on the weaning and solid food experiences of parents and babies and, most importantly, that everyone is treated with respect.

The guidelines are created for both our WhatsApp groups:

1) Slurrp It Up New Parents (parents who are currently in the Weaning Course and whose babies are below 1 year)

2) Slurrp It Up Graduates (parents who have completed the Weaning Course and whose babies are over 1 year)

We request that you go through them when you have a moment.

Remember The Purpose

Our aim is to create a supportive space where parents can come together to share, learn, and connect on the wonderful journey of weaning and baby nutrition. A senior nutritionist will respond every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday to all the questions posted by participants on this WhatsApp group. We sincerely request you to stick to these conversations and avoid other topics that might be distracting from this purpose.

Empathy Goes A Long Way

Every parenthood journey is unique, just like every baby is different! You’re encouraged to offer and seek help, but please refrain from using offensive, derogatory language or comments towards other participants. Think before you type or respond. Personal attacks, harassment, defamation, impersonation, bullying, trolling, and abuse are not acceptable in our Community. They can be hurtful and disrespectful; any parent whose words or actions fall in any of these categories will be instantly removed from the group. This is to ensure the safety and privacy of all members.

Advise, Don’t Prescribe

We truly appreciate your willingness and openness to share what has helped you and your baby; it comes from a place of concern. But remember that each child is unique, and their health needs can vary. While we encourage you to share your own experiences, we request that you refrain from suggesting or talking about medications with fellow parents. It’s always best to consult with doctors and experts for any medical advice. Your understanding and support mean a lot to us and the Community.
